Auto Renewal
Library items eligible for renewal will be automatically renewed three days before your item is due as long as there is no hold on the item and the item has not reached our maximum renewal limit, twice.
If you have an email address in your account, you will receive an email about the items that were renewed and the new due date. If you do not have an email address in your account, you can check on the due date of items by using the “My Account” tab in the catalog or by contacting the library.
