How long can you keep an item by renewing it?

Each renewal extends the due date by another loan period (e.g. an additional 21 days for most books, an additional 7 days for most DVDs - see the complete list of loan periods).

The renewal period starts as of the day you renew an item, not the original date the item was due.

You can renew an item twice, with the exception of music scores and items from picture collections, which can be renewed once.

What you can't renew:

• items already renewed twice
• items on hold for someone else
• new English feature film DVDs (less than 6 months old)
• Best Bets items (new and popular titles that are loaned out for 1 week)
• items borrowed through Interlibrary Loan

You will not be able to renew any items if...

• your library card has expired
