To Renew Items from the Library Website
1. From the library home page (http://library.strathamnh.gov) put your mouse cursor over the link in the left-hand navigation called Your Library Account/Renew then click on Renew in the next list.  Or click here to go directly to Athena's login screen.

2. You will come to the Login Athena screen, asking for your library card number (patron ID) and last name (surname).  Once you enter those and click on “Select”, you will be looking at your library record of what you have out, anything you have reserved, etc. 

3. To renew items, click on the boxes next to any items you want to renew and at the bottom of the list, click on “Renew Selected Items.”   When an item has been renewed, you will see an “OK” in the box next to that item.  If an item is not able to be renewed online, you will see a red “X” in the box next to that item. 

Reasons why something would not renew online:
  • The item is overdue.  Anything in the list that has a red due date is already overdue and can’t be renewed on-line – you can call us at the library to renew those.  Anything that has a due date in black can be renewed if no one is waiting for it. 
  • The item has a reserve on it and another patron is waiting for it.
  • Interlibrary Loan Item:  We ask that you PLEASE not renew any ILL books online, because we need to get the permission of the lending library to extend the due date first.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.  We would also be happy to walk you through the process on one of the library computers.
