Loan periods and return dates

General info

The loan period is normally 28 days. 
For some items, the library can set a shorter loan period. The due date is written on the receipt for the loan. The receipt you receive when you return your loans is your proof of having returned the borrowed materials.

You can return loans anywhere at The Copenhagen Libraries, regardless of where you borrowed them. 
 

Kildevæld Culture Center is exempt. Here you can neither loan nor return library items. Make sure that all items are registered correctly when you return your loans.

The library sends a message 3 days before the end of the loan period if you are signed up for the SMS and/or email service. However, it is always your own responsibility to return loans according to the due date.

Handing in loans from another municipality

You have the option of returning loans at The Copenhagen Libraries that have been borrowed from another municipality. However, you must be aware that the loans will not be registered as returned until they have arrived at the library from which the items was borrowed. 

By handing it in at The Copenhagen Libraries, you therefore risk getting a fee for handing it in late. If you choose to return loans to The Copenhagen Libraries, you can do so during the staffed opening hours.
