Automatic Renewals

Eligible items are set to automatically renew three days from the due date and can be renewed twice. (This applies to items checked out starting July 1, 2023.)

AN AUTO-RENEWAL WILL BE DECLINED IF: 

  • Renewal limits have been met
  • There are any holds on the item
  • The items are e-media resources (LIBBY, AXIS 360, HOOPLA)
  • The item is on interlibrary loan
  • The account is blocked

Patrons with a valid email will receive an email that will list any items that were declined. There are no notifications for patrons without a valid email. Items will start accruing fines after the due date. 

ITEMS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR AUTO-RENEWAL:

  • NEW items (books, CD’s, DVD’s, audiobooks, video games & magazines)
  • Boardbooks
  • Items from the Library of Wonderful Things

Returning Items

During open hours materials may be returned to the library at the circulation desk or at the drop boxes in the front entry. Materials may be returned at any time at the drive up drop boxes located at the rear of the library.

Overdue Fines

The Sugar Grove Public Library charges fees to patrons for items returned past their due date. It is the responsibility of patrons to keep track of due dates and return items on time. We recommend patrons keep their item receipts or log into their online accounts to check when items are due. Patrons who choose to receive library notices via email or text message will receive courtesy notices two days before items are due. Overdue notices are not sent out for overdue items until 7 days after they are due.
