My account has expired and I have left King's but I still have library books. What should I do?

Answer

If your account has expired and you still have our books, please return them as soon as you can. 

Items on loan will no longer automatically renew, fines will be applied to overdue books. If they are significantly overdue then they may have been marked as Lost and fees applied. 

All items can be returned by you or a their party, and both KCL and non-KCL members can return them on your behalf via our book boxes located outside each of our libraries. 

If you cannot return a book in person you can send them back to the library by post in the UK. Please see you How do I return my books FAQ for further information. If the books are returned before the due date and your account expiring, you will not be fined. 

Please contact us  so we can help you resolve any outstanding fines, lost items and fees. Or if you have any queries or concerns.
