ILL Renewals:
Yellow slips with due dates and renewal information (determined by the lending library) are included with each loan. Please keep the slip with the book.
Not all libraries renew. Some offer longer loan periods that include the time a renewal would extend.
Sign into your ILL account with DUO.
On the Main Menu, find the item under Checked Out Items that you'd like to renew.
If the renew button is blue, click on it to request a renewal. (If your button is gray, follow the steps below to place a new request for the item and we'll try to locate another copy for you).
The request page for that item will open and you'll receive the following message letting you now the renewal was sent. You will receive an email when we hear back from the lending library.
Once the lending library responds, you will get an email from the ILL department informing you whether or not the lending library was able to renew the item and the due date.
