Submit a Renewal Request

To submit a renewal request for an item:

  • In the “Request Details” box:
    • Select the “Sort by” order
    • Click Submit
  • Click on the View or Title link
  • Click the Renew link
  • Enter your email address in the “renew a request” window
  • Click the Send email button and the OK button on the next screen

Please submit renewal requests no more than seven days before the due date.

When the UCI Interlibrary Loan staff have sent the renewal request to the lending institution, the status will change to Renewal Pending. Note that not all renewal requests are granted by the lending library. If the renewal is approved, the status will change to Received and will include the new due date. If it is denied, the status will change to Renewal denied, and you will receive an email requesting the item be returned.
