You will be blocked from borrowing, renewing or requesting library materials when you accumulate fines in excess $10 or when you have GIL Express overdue book. If you have unpaid fines and overdue books from other universities at the end of the semester you may be blocked from registering for the next semester.

Renewals

You may renew books in person in the library or online via the GIL catalog. The library does not renew books over the telephone. To renew online, log into your GIL account, check the items you want to renew, and click the "Renew" button.

Requesting Books

If a book you need has been checked out to someone else, you may request it through the GIL online catalog. Click the "Request" link at the top or bottom of the screen on which the record for the book is displayed. When it is returned, you will be notified that the book is available for you to pick up at the Circulation Desk.
