What are “Auto-Renewals?”

With our recent upgrade to new software, we are now able to offer our library users automatic renewals of items as they become due. We encourage all of our users to sign up for email notifications so that you will receive a friendly reminder via email 48 hours before an item becomes due. 

For materials that are not on hold for another library customer, your materials will automatically renew for another loan period - three weeks for most items and two weeks for popular new fiction. You will receive an email notice about the titles that have auto-renewed as well as their new due date. There is a limit of two renewals or autorenewals, meaning you can borrow an item for its original two- or three-week loan period and then have it for two additional two- or three-week loan periods as renewals.

As always, you have the option to return the items, call the library to renew them, or log into your account from home and renew them. From our online catalog at https://www.earlibrary.org/ you can access your account, renew items and place holds. If you have any questions, please call or stop by your Dare County Library location.
