Let's figure out if your item is from a library in the CLICsearch system. Does your book have a barcode label anywhere on it?

Yes No I can't tell

If the label mentions one of these libraries, it's from CLICsearch:

• Bethel
• St. Thomas
• Northwestern/NWC/UNW-SP
• Hamline
• St. Catherine
• Concordia St.Paul

It's one of those. Let's renew it It's from a different library

The item may be from outside our CLICsearch system. These items have extra documentation on them.
Does your item have an extra sleeve over the front cover or some extra papers clipped or attached to it somewhere?

It does! Let's get it renewed No documentation on it

Back to Renew Menu

Ok, looking at the item isn't working. Instead, view your checkout in CLICsearch and/or ILLiad. When you find it, renew it there.

Basically, you have one account for things in our system, one for things outside our system.

CLIC is our system of 6 cooperating universities in the metro. Using CLICsearch is a lot like using a public library with multiple branches.

ILLiad is an account for getting things from libraries outside our system. You request it in ILLiad, we find a library that has it.
