How do I renew an interlibrary loan book?

Answer

You may request your interlibrary loan items be renewed by accessing your Interlibrary Loan account. Not all items can be renewed as it is dependent on the lending institution.

 

Under "Checked Out Items" you'll see the books you have checked out. Next to each book, you'll see a "Renew" link. Click on this link to renew the book.

You will receive an email informing you if your book has been renewed, and if so, what the new due date is.

If you've already renewed an item, you may not be able to renew it again. Renewals may be placed 14 days prior to the due date until 2 days past the due date. The Interlibrary Loan staff may also submit renewals on your behalf.
