Placing Holds

You may reserve or hold an item in person, by phone, or online.  When the item is available, you will be contacted to let you know it is available.  The reserved item will be held for three (3) days. 

Renewing Your Borrowed Items

You may renew an item in person, by phone, or online. Most items are renewable twice if another patron has not reserved them. When we first add a book to our collection, it cannot be renewed. After two months, it is no longer considered a new book, and regular lending policies apply.

Please note: You may not renew an item twice and then check it in and immediately check it out again. A period of two (2) weeks must pass between checking in an item that has been renewed twice and checking it out again.

Library Fines

Fines for Books:   $0.25 per day

Fines for DVDs:    $1.00 per day 

There will be a $10.00 cap per item for fines on books and DVDs.  If the cost of the item is less than $10.00, your fine will be capped at the cost of the item.

There is an after hours book drop in the front parking lot. 

Borrowers must pay for or replace all damaged or lost materials.  Borrowers will be charged the cost of the book and a $5 processing fee to re-catalog the item.  If you choose to replace the lost item, you will still be charged the $5 processing fee.
