Services

As a student, you can borrow books and other materials free of charge. You’ll need your HAN card. Use your card to check out materials at the self-service stations or just go to the front desk.

The standard loan period is 4 weeks, with the possibility of renewal. Please note! Some materials have a shorter loan period. This is indicated in our catalog and will be noted when you check out materials.

Is a book at another location? You can also request materials from Arnhem in Nijmegen and vice versa. Contact one of our staff members for assistance.

Finished with the materials? Return them to the place where you checked them out. Be sure to return (or renew) materials on time. Late returns are subject to a fine per item:

Days late	Fine
1-7 days	€1,00
8-14 days	€2,00
15-21 days	€3,00
30+ days	€3,00 + €15,- (+ possibly new price)

If you incur a fine of more than €6, your account will be blocked and you will no longer be able to use all of the HAN Study Centres services.

Is the material you want to borrow already on loan? Then make a reservation. This doesn't cost anything and can be done at all HAN Study Centre locations. You can make a maximum of 10 reservations.
Is an item not on loan? Then you cannot reserve it.

You can easily reserve materials in the catalog:

Under loaned materials, click "reserve".

• Log in.
• Are you a student? Log in here with your HAN email address and password. If you are a staff member, log in with your HANaccount@han.nl and password.
• Next, select the desired pick-up location.
• You'll receive an email when your reservation is ready to be picked up.
• You can pick up your reservation within one week by presenting your HAN card at the front desk of the selected study centre.

Of course, you can also visit the reception desk of a HAN study centre to make an appointment.

You can also request materials from Arnhem in Nijmegen and vice versa, but you can’t do this online. Contact one of our staff members for assistance.

If you have any problems or questions, we are happy to help you by phone or email. You can find our contact details here.

Have your materials expired, but you're not done with them yet? No worries. You can renew your items as long as no one else has reserved them. Each item can be renewed up to 10 times.

You can easily renew your items in the catalog:

• Log in. Are you a student? Log in here with your HAN email address and password. If you are a staff member, log in with your HANaccount@han.nl and password.

• and renew the items

If you have any problems or questions, we are happy to help you by phone or email.
lease note! If you incur a fine of more than €6, your account will be blocked and you will no longer be able to use all of the HAN Study Centres services. This also means that you will not be able to renew borrowed materials until the fine is paid. Is this the case for you? Then come to one of our reception desks to pay your fine.
