We would like to provide information on how graduates and graduate school completers of the first semester of the 2024 academic year can use the library.

 

1. Change in Book Return Due Date


With the conclusion of your library access under your current academic status due to graduation or completion of graduate school, the due date for any books that have not been returned will be automatically changed to August 23. Accordingly, graduates and graduate school completers of August 2024 are requested to return all borrowed books to the library before August 23.

 

* Please note that the issuance of various certificates, including graduation certificates, will be restricted if borrowed materials are not returned.

※ Example of Due Date Change

Borrowed on August 09 > Return by August 23

Borrowed on August 13 > Return by August 23

3. Library Use Guide for Graduate School Completers

 

Grace Period for Library Entry for Graduate School Completers

Upon completion of your graduate program, book borrowing is not allowed, but you can access the library and use the reading rooms (including seat reservations) until September 30, 2024.

After the grace period, library use (including access, borrowing, and reading rooms) is available through the annual fee system.

(If you wish to borrow books during the grace period, please apply for the annual fee system.)

 

Annual Fee Information: https://library.korea.ac.kr/my-library/membership/membership-term/

Applications and payments for the annual fee submitted before the 24th (Saturday) will be registered collectively on the morning of August 24th (Saturday). (You will receive a notification after registration.)

 

Notice on the Use of Electronic Resources for Graduate School Completers

The library provides electronic resources to current students and currently employed staff. While the annual fee system allows for borrowing materials and using library facilities, it comes with limitations (e.g., no remote access to electronic resources).

 

General Graduate School

At the beginning of the semester, pay the designated "Research Registration Fee" to the graduate school to register as a research student.

(Payment does not immediately confer the status of research student upon payment; status is updated collectively after the registration period ends.)

Graduate School of Education

At the beginning of the semester, pay the "Research Guidance Fee" to the Graduate School of Education.

(Payment does not immediately confer the status of research student upon payment; status is updated collectively after the registration period ends.)

As a graduate school completer preparing a thesis, if you require access to electronic resources, please follow the procedures set by your respective graduate school. For inquiries, please contact your department's administrative office.

Students from specialized graduate schools that do not implement the research completion system should inquire individually with the user management personnel.
