Borrowing Limits
A maximum of 100 items is allowed per card, with a limit of 4 books on a single subject.
Damaged or Lost Items
If an item is lost or is returned in damaged condition, the customer is responsible for the replacement cost of the item, plus $5.00 processing fee, plus applicable taxes.
Overdue Charge Policy
You may not use your card if you have outstanding charges of $20.00 or more. Outstanding charges must be paid in full when cards are renewed.
Unpaid charges of $30.00 or more will result in referral to a collection agency after normal notification procedures have been exhausted.
The library calls or emails to remind borrowers when items are overdue. If an item has a 3-day or 1-week loan period, such as magazines and DVDs, a notice is generated after the item is 3 days overdue. A second notice is issued after 10 days, a third notice goes out after 24 days and a final bill is issued after 45 days.
For all other material borrowed on a 3-week loan, notices are generated: after 7 days overdue, second notice at 21 days, third notice at 42 days, and a final bill at 60 days.
