What do I do if I’ve reached the maximum renewals on a book but still need it?

Answer

If your book has reached its renewal limit, but you still need it, you will need to come into one of our library locations with the book and your ONEcard.

If there are any holds on the book, you will have to return it, but you can then place a hold on it so you will be in the queue to borrow it again.

If there are no holds on the book, staff can discharge the item and sign them back out to you to restart the renewal cycle.

*If the book is from a NEOS member library that is not the U of A, it needs to be returned.  Please read the following FAQ for more details: Why am I no longer seeing NEOS Library locations and books in the library catalogue?   Please ask staff about alternative ways to access the book.
