How do I extend my loans?

After the initial borrowing period, you may opt to renew your loan for a further borrowing period unless:

  • The item has been requested by another user

  • The item is restricted

  • You have overdue loans

  • You have reached the maximum number of renewal periods

1. From the Library Catalogue home page, click Login at the top right and log in to your account

2. Enter your username (AC student number or staff login name) and password. Click Login

3. Click the arrow next to your name in the top right and select My Library Account

4. Any loans you have will appear in the Loans tab

5. Click Renew for the titles you wish to renew

6. You will see the new due date appear next to the title.

Note:

  • Renewals will be for the usual loan period from the date of renewal, not from the end of the current loan so if you want an item for longer, renew it close to the due date.

  • If someone else has placed the item on hold, you will not be able to renew it and must return it by the original due date.

  • If an item is already overdue, you will not be able to renew it and will need to return it to the library and reborrow if still required.
