Automatic Renewals

 You said:

I have a book, ‘Public Health Nutrition’ by Gibney that is not automatically renewing.  The reason is because it has been renewed 47 times when only 20 renewals are allowed.  Do I need to come in to renew this again?  I have a few more that are likely to hit this threshold of 20 renewals soon so it would be good to know how to manage this.

We said:

Thank you for your enquiry. You have had “Public Health Nutrition” since 30.9.20 and it has been renewed 47 times. During the pandemic we extended the number of automatic renewals to support students

 I have renewed the item for you. Please can you return it on or before 7.10.21
