Why won't my materials renew?

• The item has been requested by another user
• The maximum renewal limit has been reached
• Movies cannot be renewed
• Library card is blocked due to accumulated fines and/or fees of more than $10.00
• Library card has expired (library cards expire after one year; to renew, bring verification of current address to either Library location)
