• Reference materials and issues of current periodicals will not be loaned; they are in-library use only.
• Membership cards are not required for use of reference services or other materials within the library, including the Library Catalog and the Internet.

 Renewals  *Items may not be renewed/transferred to another card

• Items that have already been renewed must be checked in for at least one business day before borrowing them again.
