Borrowing Policy
Patrons may check out a large variety of books and other materials. The library limits the number of CD/DVDs and reserves the right to limit the number of certain seasonal or special interest items that can be checked out. Reference materials may not be checked out. Books may be returned in the outside book drop; however, we would prefer other materials be returned inside the library due to the possibility of damage.
Patrons are financially responsible for all items checked out on the library card.
Loan Periods
Books, CDs, magazines and audio books, may be checked out for 2 weeks. DVDs may be checked out for 1 week .
Renewals
Most items may be renewed twice if there are no outstanding requests for the item. High demand or special interest items, as well as some interlibrary loan items, may not be renewable. You may renew in person, over the phone, or on our website.
Reciprocal Borrowers
We will honor a valid library card from another library.
