Library says relax! Auto-renewals are here.

Posted:: Monday 28 Jun 2021

Please note the content of this news item is over six months old and may no longer be current.

You can relax…your physical library loans are now extended automatically up to two times if no one else has placed a hold on your items.

This service is a real time saver! An email will be sent to your registered email address to advise of the new due date or you can log in to the catalogue or use the Libraries SA App to confirm due dates.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I want to manually renew the item myself?

You won't be able to renew the item yourself earlier than 3 days prior to items being due.

If you require a renewal earlier (eg. holidaying/hospital etc) then you will need to contact your library.

How will I know if my items have been renewed?

We will send you an email to let you know the items that have been renewed and their new due dates. For any items unable to be renewed, we will email you a courtesy reminder notice.

You can also log in to the catalogue or Libraries SA App and check “My Account.”

Will I lose any days of my new loan period if my items are renewed earlier?

No. All renewals from now on will be from the due date of the item, not the date it is renewed, so you won’t lose any days.

What about New Releases and Trending Titles?

Items with shortened loan periods, i.e. new materials and Trending Titles are excluded from this service.
