Renewals
Books, DVDs laptops, and graphing calculators can be renewed in person, by telephone, or online via our website. Reserve items and headphones cannot be renewed.
See the Library's renewal instructions.
Recalls and Holds
You may recall an item currently loaned to another borrower. The recall process generates an email notice to the borrower requesting the item be returned within 14 days (5 days for DVDs). You would request a recall whenever you need an item to be returned as soon as possible.
You may also place a hold on an item currently loaned to another borrower. The borrower will not be notified via email of the request, but will not be able to renew the item. When the item is returned, you will receive an email notifying you of its availability for pickup. You would request a hold for any item which you do not need immediately.
Please ask a Library staff member for assistance on placing recalls or holds.
Overdue and Lost Item Fees
You will not be charged overdue fines for normal circulating items. However, you may be held responsible for items lost, stolen or considered to be lost or stolen (see below).

Courtesy and Overdue Notices
When applicable, you will be emailed a courtesy notice 5 days before an item is due. This notice is simply a reminder to return or renew the item before the due date.

Lost Items and Billing
