ILL Circulation and Overdue Policies

You will receive a reminder notification via email when an interlibrary loan is about to be due followed by overdue emails after the due date.

First, users will receive a notice that the item will be due soon, followed by a second notice after the item status is passed the due date.  

A third notice after the due date will suspend the user's IDD account, and will remain blocked until the item is returned. 

ILL items lost or not returned will be automatically charged a $150.00 replacement fee. Once the fine is paid or item is returned, please contact us or call (213) 740-4020 to unblock your account.

Please note that replacement copies in lieu of the replacement fee are no longer accepted.

Overdue fines can be paid at any USC Libraries Circulation Desk. Again, please contact us when the overdue fee is paid so that we may unblock your account.

Excessive or consistent overdue items will result in permanent suspension of interlibrary loan privileges.
