BORROWING RULES
The loan is personal and non-transferable.
Most of the IE University Library’s holdings are electronic. You can check them online in our catalog.
You have to self-borrow the materials in the library with DiY IEU Library APP on your own smartphone.
If you have any problem during self-borrowing, contact a librarian.
Special conditions are announced before each holiday period.
Some materials are excluded from the loan service, such as any in the Reference and Library-use only sections, printed magazines, or items indicated as such.
Items from the PhD shelf location can be taken out on loan only by PhD and DBA students, faculty, and staff.
If there is any inappropriate behavior in the library or with its materials, the Library reserves the right to block any user account, and restrict access to all the services and products the library offers. The user will be always notified in advance.

Archive materials are available, but do not have free access. However, these materials are available to you and can be requested from the library at any time, once you make a hold. If the archive item is at your library’s campus, it will be available within three days.
If there is any inappropriate behavior in the library or with its materials, IE Library reserves the right to block any user account, and restrict access to all the services and products the library offers. The user will be always notified in advance.
Renewals can be made through the “User Portal” on the library webpage or the DiY IEU Library APP on the Smart Station devices or your own smartphone.
To renew items in the library with the app, you must use your activated IE ID Card.
Consecutive renewals are allowed provided that:
- The user does not have other overdue items or fines pending.
- The material is not requested by another user.
You must return your borrowed items in the library with the DiY IE Library APP. Leave them on the trolley near the Borrow & Return station. You can also leave them in the drop boxes available.
If you do this with your own Android device, confirm your returns at the “Complete your return” point at the Smart Station.
Fines will continue to accumulate daily on all overdue items until the item is returned or is declared lost by either the borrower or the Library.
If an item is lost during your loan period or returned in poor condition, the holder will be responsible for replacing that item for the library. Please note that some items are rare or no longer in stock. Items considered as such, due to the difficulty in finding them and their high value, will be charged as double their price.
Former members of the IE Community who still have materials pending to be returned to IE Library will be excluded from all IE Library services and products indefinitely.
The User Portal is your own virtual library space. As an IE Community member, you can access it with your IE credentials (e-mail and password).
You can check your on-loan items and return dates; renew your loans and check how many renewals you have left; place and cancel holds; check for outstanding fines; check and receive your interlibrary loan requests of electronic resources; search the IE Library catalog and WorldCat—the world’s largest library catalog.

When the material is available to pick up in the location selected, you will receive an e-mail notification. The material will be on hold for two working days after the notification (weekend days and holidays are not counted). If, after that time, the material has not been picked up, it will go to the next user in the queue or be returned to the shelves.
