It is often possible for you to renew your book loans, if you are not yet finished using them.

However, for material that is in the Short Loan or 4-Hour Loan collections this option is not possible as these books are in demand, or may be on reading lists. 

Where this is the case, check to see if an additional  copy of the book is available in one of our other collections.

If the item is not late then you can renew it (if you are already logged in through UCD Connect):

• In UCD Connect, go to the My Library tab, then click on My Account.
• Click on the check box next to the item you want to renew and click on Renew Marked or Renew All.

• Use our Chat service.
• Call us by phone: +353 (0)1 716 7639.
• Contact us by e-mail.

Remember to have your borrower number and the title of the item ready.

• Call in person:
  • Call to the Service Desk and Library staff will renew the item for you
  • Use the Express Service.

The Library system will not allow you to renew when items:

• Are from the Short Loan or 4-Hour Collections. These books are in demand, or may be on reading lists. You could check to see if an additional  copy is available in the collection.
• Have been reserved by another borrower who needs them.
• Are already overdue.

The Library system will also not allow you to renew when:

• There is a fine on your account of more than €5.00 
• When a message has been placed on your account. For details, contact the Library - by phone: (01) 716 7639; by email; or call in to see us.
