Patron Policies
1. Library Cards: Your first library card is free. Lost cards may be replaced at a cost of $1.00. Please bring your card if you want to check materials out.
2. Check Out and Renewals: Movies may be checked out for 1 week and are limited to 4 per card. All other items are checked out for 3 weeks. There is a limit of 20 items overall and your first checkout is limited to 5 items. Materials may be renewed once for an additional 1 or 3 weeks. You may renew by phone or self-renew on our website. Our phone number is printed on your library card.
3. Fines: Materials returned late will accumulate fines at the rate of 10 cents per day per item. Fines of $5.00 or more must be paid before the patron may check out more books.
4. Responsibility: You are responsible for fines, damages or the loss of any items checked out on your card. You may be charged the cost of replacement for lost or damaged materials. If you let someone else use your card, you are responsible for the items that they check out.
5. Age: Anyone under 18 years of age must have the signature of a parent or responsible adult in order to receive a library card. Signing for a minor means you assume responsibility for items checked out as described above. The library does not limit what a minor patron checks out. Parents or the responsible adult decide the appropriateness of materials for the minor. Patrons under 18 must read and sign our Internet Policy and have the signature of a parent or responsible adult before using the library's public computers.
6. Interlibrary Loan (ILL): Materials not owned by the library may be obtained through ILL according to the guidelines outlined in our ILL policy.
