Material Renewals

The renewal of an item essentially "recharges" that item to the same patron thus allowing him/her to borrow it for an additional borrowing period.

All MCDL owned items may be renewed up to 5 times. Exceptions to this rule include:

  • Core Collection cannot be renewed.
  • Tot Boxes cannot be renewed.
  • Items with outstanding holds cannot be renewed.
  • OCLC interloaned items cannot be renewed.
  • Bi Folkal Kits cannot be renewed.
  • Items not owned by MCDL may be renewed according to the limits set by the owning agency.

In order to renew an item, the patron may either: 

  • renew the item online
  • renew the item by phone by calling any MCDL branch
  • bring the item or the printed receipt for the item to any MCDL circulation desk
