Q. I want to renew my current book. Can I do that myself?

You can log into your account, click on "My Account," and select the "Checkouts" tab. There you can check boxes next to the book(s) you'd like to renew, and click on the "Renew" button at the top of the display. When the screen refreshes and reloads, your Checkouts will display with new due dates. If any of the items you attempt to renew reload with the same due date and a message in red, that renewal was not successful. The message will indicate the reason it could not renew:  there are other people waiting for this book, the renewal limit has been reached, or more than $20 in fines have accrued on your account.  You can return those item(s) before that date to avoid fines.
