Exceptions:

  • Renewal is subject to availability.
  • Returned items may be available to be checked out again after a 15-minute wait if they are not borrowed by other patrons. This wait period is designed to give other members of the community an opportunity to check out the item.
  • Library staff may decline to circulate items if they have concerns about the fragility or care of library materials.
  • Checkout of more than one of the same equipment items (e.g., laptops, cameras, tripods, etc.) is contingent on supply and anticipated need.

How to renew items:
