If you have any questions, or need assistance, please call us on 8416 6228 or speak to staff next time you visit.

Your physical library loans are now extended automatically 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 LibrariesSA app to confirm due dates.

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 (e.g. holidaying, hospital etc.) then you will need to contact us.

We will send you one email to let you know the items that have been renewed and their new due dates, and for those which were unable to be renewed a courtesy reminder notice.

You can also log in to the catalogue or LibrariesSA app and check “My Account”.

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 that you were entitled to.
