Fines for overdue items vary depending on the item type. Damaged items and lost items are billed at their replacement cost. All fines are payable immediately, and borrowing privileges may be suspended until payment is received.
Renewing Items
Late fines can be avoided by returning or renewing items by their due date. You can renew books in person at the library, by phoning 780-354-2930, or online by logging in to your account at TRACpac.
Most items may be renewed twice, unless other patrons have holds on the item.
Placing Holds
Can't find what you're looking for on the shelves? You can place a hold in person, by phone, or online by logging in to your account at TRACpac.
You may place up to 25 holds at a time, and schedule or stagger them as you see fit. Items are held for 7 days once they arrive at your library for pick-up. Contact your library directly to request an extension of the pick-up period.
Please suspend your holds if you will be away for an extended period of time or cancel holds that are no longer desired. You can do so in person, by phone, or online by logging in to your account at TRACpac.
Lost or Stolen Card
For your protection, contact the library immediately to report a lost or stolen card so we can stop others from using it. You are responsible for anything borrowed until it is reported.
