Manage Your Loans
Use your library account to keep track of borrowed materials, renew items, and manage your requests.
Access Your Library Account
Sign in with your Dalhousie NetID through the library catalogue (Novanet) to:
- View items you currently have on loan
- Check due dates
- Renew eligible items
- Track requests
Request & Renew Items
If you request an item through our catalogue or through Document Delivery, you can track its status through your library account.
You will receive a notification when your item is ready for pickup at your selected library location.
Your items will renew automatically until they reach the renewal limit.
Due Dates and Overdue Items
Your library account shows the due dates for all borrowed items.
Returning or renewing materials before the due date helps ensure they remain available for other library users. If an item becomes overdue, your account will display its status.
If you have questions about overdue items or borrowing privileges, contact the library for assistance.
Returning Materials
Borrow anywhere, return anywhere: Return borrowed items to any Dalhousie library location, Novanet member library, or public library in Nova Scotia. Book drops are available for after-hours returns.
Some specialized materials may need to be returned to the service desk where they were borrowed. Reserve items and items borrowed through Document Delivery must be returned in-person to the same place they were borrowed from.
