	eMail Reminder Notices Indian Trails now sends out an e-mail reminder notice three days before an item is due! This gives you time to finish up or renew before the item is overdue. To take advantage of this service, make sure your e-mail address is correct in your library account, then make sure that the library is one of your preferred correspondents so that the message doesn't get lost in your Spam folder. No notice is sent out for DVDs checked out for only three days-and not all items can be renewed. Save money, save time and keep your library account current with the new pre-notifier service.

Item Renewal

Avoiding overdue fines is easier than ever! Indian Trails has three ways for you to renew items before the fees add on:

Renew online! www.indiantrailslibrary.org and click on My Account, enter your 14-digit library card number and four digit pin number, click on Items Checked Out, check the boxes by each title and click Renew at the top of the list. Items that cannot be renewed will show exceptions.
Renew by telephone 24/7! Call 847-465-1837 and follow the instructions. Have your library card and pin handy.
Renew by telephone during library hours! Call 847-279-2259 and circulation staff will renew for you and answer any other questions you may have. Be sure to have your library card handy.

To renew Interlibrary Loan materials, call 847-459-4100 and ask for ILL. ILL staff will check the lending library to see if a longer loan period is acceptable.

DVDs, videos, new titles, special collection items and patron requested items cannot be renewed. You also cannot renew if your account is delinquent in any way. Sign up for the new Pre-Notify service and receive an e-mail three days before the item is due.

Prime Time Television

Have the kids commandeered the TiVo, the cable box and the recorder?

Are you missing out on valuable conversations because you haven't kept up with a television series?

Are you still wondering Who Shot JR?

Tired of trying to tell which commercial is real on Channel 23-Me TV?

Then visit the library and check out an entire television series at one time-many television shows are on DVD and/or videocassette.

For starters there's the British Comedy Absolutely Fabulous! (TV/DVD or TV/VIDEO 791.4572/ABS/SERIES 1-5),

then there's the 1960s classic The Avengers (TV/DVD or TV/VIDEO 791.4572/AVE),

the miniseries Band of Brothers (TV/DVD or TV/VIDEO 791.4572/BAN).

Hundreds of titles to choose from-the Sharpe's series gamut, Dick Van Dyke Show, Rhoda on video, Shelley Duvall's Tall Tales and Legends series, Sex & the City (DVD only), The Sopranos, Ken Burns documentaries, PBS series, Hallmark Hall of Fame and more-see them all from beginning to end. At your own pace! Without commercials! Check the library's catalog or ask a librarian for help.

Computer Software

Check out home use computer software available at the library! We have programs like the Complete Career IQ Test, CDROM/153.94/COM and Resumes that Work, CDROM/331.128/RES (we've come a long way since What Color is your Parachute! 650.14/BOL/2007) that help you to work through your interests and narrow down career choices or create a resume that reflects the real you. We also have dream interpretation software called Secret Paths to Your Dreams, CDROM/154.63/SEC as well as others on a variety of subjects, for both PC and MacIntosh.

We have Dr. Seuss Kindergarten: When Kids Laugh More, They Learn More, CDROM/372.21/DOC, with 250 different lessons that kids and parents can share as they learn together.
