borrowed items

Things to return

Borrowed items are things taken temporarily with the intention of returning them.

The phrase appears in library policies, lending agreements, and household rules: Please return all borrowed items by the end of the semester.

Unlike stolen goods, borrowed items carry an implicit obligation to give them back.
