Circulating print materials may be renewed if there are no holds or requests placed on the item and if the loan has not exceeded the maximum number of renewals. To renew materials, bring the materials and your EagleCard to the Borrow Desk or renew online. Items may not be renewed by telephone. All materials checked out to students are subject to request by another patron after 14 days. The new due date generated by the request supersedes the original due date. Please return requested items by the new due date to avoid incurring overdue fines and suspension of library privileges. In the event of a request, a notice will be emailed or mailed to the address in your patron record.

Please note that items checked out to Faculty and Staff are due one year from the checkout date. Due to this extended loan period, items checked out to Faculty and Staff must be renewed at the library, not online.
