Staff Services

Staff are allowed to checkout 50 books at time. If you are close to the limit and need additional materials for your research, contact a librarian to discuss raising your limit.

We know your life is busy, so we try to give you plenty of time to use the materials you check out. In addition to long check out lengths we also allow you to renew your books two times for the same checkout length.

May I renew my library materials?

Yes, but with the following exceptions:

• Reserve items many not be renewed
• Government publications may only be renewed once
• Interlibrary Loan renewal requests should be emailed to ill@loras.edu

To renew your materials, go to the Library's home page (http://library.loras.edu/)

1. Hover over My Personal Library
2. Select My Library Account
3. Enter your network username and password (the same combination you use to log into your computer)
4. Click the renew button next to the items you want to renew
5. A note will appear above the box letting you know if you were successful or not
