How to Check Out, Renew, and Return Library Materials

Check out materials at the Circulation Desk. ID cards with a library barcode (on the front of your ID) are required for students, faculty and staff to check out materials from the BUL.

Renew items in your CLICnet account or see when materials are due. Books can be renewed twice in CLICnet if there are no requests for the book.  You cannot renew an item on or after the due date.

To renew:

• Click on MyLibrary on the Library/IC homepage
• Click on CLICnet account
• Enter your first and last name
• Type in your 14 digit CLICnet Library Barcode number
• Click on the link that says "# Item(s) currently checked out"
• Click "Renew all" or select the items you want to renew and click "Renew Selected Items"

Return materials to the bookdrop at the Circulation Desk in the Library. If the library is closed, use the bookdrop just to the left of the entrance. If it has a paper sleeve, PLEASE LEAVE IT ON THE BOOK. Without this sleeve, your loan record may not be cleared.
