g.      Renewal

Each loan item may be renewed for up to three consecutive times, provided that they are not already reserved, or overdue. Renewal can be made in person or through the library homepage (http://www.ywgs.edu.hk/~library). Since the loan item may have been reserved by another reader or cannot be renewed for other reasons, renewal through the Internet should be made at least one working day before the due date in order to allow sufficient time for returning the loan item in case renewal is denied. All loan items, which cannot be renewed, should be returned to the school library by the due date. Borrowers must pay the fine for all overdue loan items.
