Dear graduates of 2026 class:
To handle the graduation process for the graduates of 2026 class, the library needs to make sure the graduates return all books/textbooks, pay for overdue fine, and submit dissertations. For undergraduate students, the tasks include: returning books/textbooks and paying for overdue fine. For graduate students, the tasks include: returning books/textbooks, paying for overdue fine, and submitting dissertations.
1. Returning of books/textbooks and payment for overdue fine
The library will terminate all borrowing privileges for graduates of 2026 class on June 17, 2026. Graduates will not be able to borrow books after that date. If you plan to borrow books, plan accordingly and return books before June 17th.
Graduates can check the status of book returning and overdue fine through the “mini app” program from June 17th. If you have no books/textbooks to return or no fine, the leaving-school system will automatically show that you have completed the tasks and no further action is required at the library. For students who need to return books/textbooks or pay for overdue fine after June 17th should go to the service desk on the second floor of the Yidan Library to process the related procedures. The working hour of the service desk at the Yidan Library is from 8:30 AM to 10:00 PM, seven days a week.
2. Submission of dissertations
From June 12th to July 6th, the library will review the final versions of the graduate student's dissertations. All graduate students, joint program graduate students, and joint program doctoral students need to submit their final versions of dissertations in the university's dissertation system before completing their graduation procedures. After being approved by the library, the leaving-school system will show that the submission of the dissertation has been completed.
