Renewing Materials

Patrons may renew their books online, over the phone, or in person. 

  • To review your loan due dates , and to renew online, click on the "My Accounts" link on the library homepage or the catalog and enter your NetID or Library Card Number.
  • Select Loans from the menu to see a list of your loans.
  • If an item is not assumed lost or has not been requested by another user, check the box next to the Author.
  • Once you have checked all the items you wish to renew, click on the Renew link.  Any items which were not renewed will be listed, along with the reason for non-renewal. 
If you wish to have a staff member help you, or if your books are already considered lost, please call (919) 660-5870 or ask a staff member at the Circulation Desk in Perkins Library for help.

Please be aware that not all items may be renewed.  Items from the New & Noteworthy, Duke Authors and DVD collections are not renewable.  Reserve items, laptops, headphones and calculators may all be checked out again, however you must wait one hour before borrowing them again to give other patrons a chance to use these high-demand items.
