One renewal (loan extension) is allowed per request, unless "NO RENEWALS ALLOWED" is printed on the book band. Approval and length of the extension is up to the lending library. Renewals are usually granted for 2-4 weeks. Renewal requests can be made starting 10 days before due date and cannot be requested after the due date has passed. If the due date has passed and you still need the item, place a new request and we will get the item from another library. Return the overdue item ASAP. To request a renewal:
- Logon to your ILL (https://www.lib.lsu.edu/services/ill) account.
- Under "View Your Requests" click Checked Out /Renew.
- Click on the transaction number (TN) of the item you want to renew.
- If the item is eligible for renewal (within 10 days of the due date) click the Renew Request link in red, your new due date is a 3-day extension of the original due date. If the lender grants a full extension (usually 2-4 weeks), you will receive a notification with a new due date. Answered by: Jacob Fontenot

Library staff will provide you with a due date slip for all materials at their time of checkout. You can also log into your catalog or interlibrary loan accounts to review your checkouts and due dates (see links below). Please remember that due dates for reserve and Gear 2 Geaux items often are time-specific. LSU Libraries | Library Catalog Account

There are two ways to locate print books in the library's collection:
- Print books are searchable in the LSU Libraries catalog (https://lsu.ent.sirsi.net/client/en_US/lsu/?rm=MORE+SEARCH+OP0%7C%7C%7C…) . To find books on a certain topic, you can either search for the topic as a keyword, or use the advanced search to look for subject tags.
- Print books can also be found searching the library's Discovery (https://www.lib.lsu.edu/) search tool, the default search box on the library's homepage. It searches across many of the library's databases and the catalog. Answered by: Electronic Resources

Recent fines accrued by LSU Library patrons will appear on their library account. You can see any current fines by logging into your library catalog account using the link below. We accept cash, check, and TigerCash payments at the checkout desk in room 241 LSU Library. Please use your library catalog account to pay using a bank or credit card. Fines applied to student accounts will roll from the library to the bursar at the end of the month, at which point they will be applied to the student's fee bill. If you have questions about library fines, please email us at libcirc@lsu.edu (mailto:libcirc@lsu.edu) so that we can investigate. Note: Fines applied to public patron accounts must be paid in order for patrons to renew items or check out new materials. LSU Libraries | Library Catalog Account Answered by: Access Services Staff
