The fixed period of time for which an item in the circulating collection of a library may be checked out by a registered borrower. Synonymous with borrowing period. The period may vary according to the format of the item.

In most libraries, items (except reserves) may be renewed unless a hold has been placed by another person. Fines are usually charged for items returned after the due date unless they have been renewed.
