There are several options for returning and renewing library books.
Log in to your Library account and renew your books (should work for most items)
- Go to the Library’s catalog
- Click on “Sign In” on the top right corner.
- After signing in, click on your name in the top right corner, then click on “My Loans”
- Select “Renew”. If “Renew” is not an option, email math@library.illinois.edu and we help you with your renewal request.
Return your books to any University of Illinois book drop
- Outdoor book drop at Grainger Engineering Library and Information Center, located on the south east wall of the building facing Bardeen Quad
- Outdoor book drop at the Main Library, located outside of the Main Library building on the south side of the building off of the E3 parking lot
- Book drop outside the Math Library doors (available until Altgeld Hall is closed)
- Any other University Library book drop to which you have access – your book(s) will be returned through campus library shipping.
Contact us directly with special concerns
- If your book is from another institution, we may need to call the institution to renew it.
