How does a librarian know when a book is due and how to renew it?

Search the book number on the return or renewal page to see its due date; overdue books need a fine on return.

To check a book’s due date, open the return book page and search by the book number. The book’s issue details, including the due date, are shown.

To extend the loan instead, open the Book renewal page and search for the book. See How to renew an issued book.
