Items that can be borrowed for 28 days cannot be renewed more than three times.

Books requested via interlibrary loan can be renewed only twice. If, however, the originating library does not agree to the renewal, you willl be prompted to return the book.

Please note:

• The due date does not change if you attempt to renew items multiple times on the same day.
• You cannot renew items by phone or email.
• Even if you exceed the loan period for only one day, you will accrue overdue fines. If you have any problems renewing items, contact the circulation desk during the opening hours for cash payment before the due date.

You can also renew items by presenting them along with your library card at a circulation desk.
