Users can return the material in person or by sending it as registered mail to: Faculty of Information Studies in Novo mesto / Library, Ljubljanska cesta 31a, p.p. 603, 8000 Novo mesto. If the library member does not return the material on time, they must pay the late fee according to the valid price list.
Lost or damaged material
Users must replace damaged or lost material with the same or appropriate replacement material and at the same time pay the costs of processing the material according to the valid price list. If the material cannot be replaced they pay compensation according to the valid price list.
Interlibrary loan is a library service that allows library members to access material that we do not have in our library collection or is currently borrowed. The costs of interlibrary loan are charged according to the library price list and the costs of an international interlibrary loan depend on the type of service and the supplier’s price list.
Users can order the material in person or by email (knjiznica@fis.unm.si). When placing an order, the user undertakes to:
- Pay all costs incurred by interlibrary loan upon receipt of the material;
- Pay all costs even if they do not collect the material;
- Return the material on time and undamaged. We charge a late fee for exceeding the loan period. In case of damage or loss of material, the user must pay all costs incurred.
The material is collected in person. The material that the library receives in electronic form (e.g. an e-article …) is sent to the user by e-mail.
The loan period for the material and the possibility of extension are determined by the libraries that lend the material. An order that has already been sent to a supplier abroad cannot be cancelled. Cancellation of an order to a Slovenian library is only possible if the supplier library has not sent the material yet.
For additional information, call 059 075 152 or send the e-mail to knjiznica@fis.unm.si.
