How to View Your Library Account & Renew Items

You can view your library account any time, from anywhere, to see what you have checked out and when it's due, or to request renewals. (Note: This does not include items from other libraries borrowed through interlibrary loan; those have separate renewal procedures.)

  1. Start at https://library.shsu.edu/ 
     
  2. In the library main menu on the right, click Research.
     
  3. Click "Books & Media (Catalog)."
