Working with Due Dates

The Due Date is defined as the day on which the loaned item is due back at the lending library. It applies only to Returnable (loan) requests. The system uses the Deadline Date to calculate when a request is moved to the next lender, becomes overdue, etc.; however, the label “Deadline Date” is not displayed on the ILL request form. It may be necessary to update the value in the Days to Return in your library’s Participant Record (see Maintaining Participant Records for details) in order to allow sufficient time for the patron to read the item and for the item to be returned.
