Looking for info on library, renewals, loans, reservations

    Hi All,

    I'm trying to find info on the UL Library site regarding loans and reservations etc. but can't seem to find anything so was hoping someone here could help with a link perhaps?

    Basically I'm a postgrad and a guy in the library told me that that means I can have 10 loans for 4 weeks, and as many reservations as I want?

    Anyway I have a book out now and its due back in 3 weeks. I'm wondering how the renewal service works. If I renew it now, does that renew it from today's date? or from the day its due? So to keep the book as long as possible should I wait until the day before its due back to try renew? Or can I just do it now? And now long will the renewal add onto my loan? Also how many renewals allowed??

    Cheers!

    I've renewed an item 3 times and it won't allow more than that. AFAIK it will renew from its due back date. However if there's a reservation on the book you have out, it won't renew. Best to just experiment and see what it does.

    I'm an undergrad, just wondering whether it's two or three weeks we're allowed keep books out for? Regular loans, not 3 day, 7 day etc loans that is (obviously :) )!
    Also, how many books can be lent at any one time to an undergrad?
