Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.

 

The University of Sydney Library acknowledges that our buildings, collections, and practices exist on unceded Aboriginal lands. We recognise the diversity and knowledges of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff and students across all the lands the University stands on, and respect the ongoing connection Aboriginal people have to these lands, their cultural practices, knowledge systems and histories. We pay our respects to their Elders, past and present, who have handed down custodianship to each generation for more than 60,000 years.

Have you forgotten about a Library item you borrowed ages ago? Or kept something longer than you intended? It’s time to bring your overdue books back to the Library.

We want to make sure our collection is accounted for and available for our fellow students, colleagues and community to use. So the Library will be holding a no-questions-asked amnesty period from 11 June – 19 July 2024.  Return your books and we’ll waive your fines.

Simply put your books into any returns chute at Fisher Library, Law Library, SciTech Library, Susan Wakil Health Building Library or the Conservatorium of Music Library during their opening hours. For convenience, the return chutes at Fisher Library and SciTech Library can be accessed 24/7 and remember, you don’t need to return the book to the same location you borrowed it from.

If you have questions about a fine or a missing book during the amnesty period, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us by talking to one of our staff via Live Chat or at an information desk, or by completing the online enquiry form.
