**TAMUQ Library Community User/Former Student Applications are available at the TAMUQ Library during regular library hours. All borrowers must be residents of Qatar and be 18 years of age or older. QID must be presented at time of application.
Items that have been borrowed from the Library can normally have the loan period extended beyond the due date by renewing online here. The amount of times an item can be renewed depends on item type and borrower type. If an item is not renewed and is returned after the due date it may be subject to fines. If an item has reached the maximum number of renewals it should be returned to the library. Once returned to the library it may be able to be borrowed again if it is not wanted by anyone else.
