Renew a library loan

To renew a library book or item, you will need your library card number and PIN.

You will not be able to renew an item if:

  • it has been reserved by another customer
  • you are an adult who has more than £10 in overdue charges
  • the item is more than 60 days overdue

If you have renewed an item online 4 times, you'll need to bring the item into a library to renew it.
