Renewals

Renewal Limits:  Two Web, phone, or email renewals are allowed. Once this limit is reached, a patron must renew in person at the library with the item(s) in hand. Reserves and journals may NOT be renewed by Web, email, or phone. 

Institutional borrowers can ONLY renew books IN PERSON with one coupon per book per renewal.

A book may NOT be renewed if:

• Another patron has placed a hold or a recall on it.
• The ID card is expired or is blocked.
• The renewal limit has been reached.

Web Renewals: Go to My Circulation Records. You'll need your SUNet ID and password.
