I have books checked out that are due and I can not get back to campus to return them. What do I do?
Books from Georgetown University Law Library
Returning Students – No one needs to return materials at this time. We will extend your due date.

Books from another library (ILL, WRLC, Consortium, Georgetown Main Library)

Are researchers able to access the library at this time?
Until further notice, The Edward Bennett Williams Law Library building is closed to students, faculty, staff, and researchers. This includes Alumni, Friends of the Library, and Members of the Public Patron Program.
Since researchers are not able to come to the library, will you be able to send me a copy of an article or pages from a book that I need?
At this time, we are only able to provide assistance to current Georgetown Law students, faculty, and staff. Interlibrary Loan type services are currently not available for other researchers.
