Viewing and renewing loans

You can view and renew your books by accessing the Loans section in your Explore account.  This will provide you with information of what you have on loan and when it is due back in the library. On the same page you can also renew your books manually by clicking on Renew or Renew All options:

Please note that all borrowed books are now automatically renewed if they have a loan period of one week or longer, unless they have been requested by another user. Standard (eight-week) loan books can be recalled if they are requested by another user and you will be given one week to return them to us. So please check your Library account regularly to avoid late return charges!

Short loan items (items with a loan period of less than one week) must be returned at the end of their loan period as usual.
