Borrowing

RSML patrons may borrow library materials by presenting their library card at the Circulation Desk. This will give them borrowing and renewing privileges in the Library Catalogue.

Renewing

Renewals are permitted if no other patron has requested the materials. Library items may be renewed once. Materials can be renewed via phone or in-person. Renewed materials may be recalled to the Library at any time. Circulation privileges and patron’s library account will be suspended until returning the materials.

Patron's Responsibilities as a Borrower

It is expected that patrons will take care to return an item in the same condition it was in when they checked it out. Library patrons are charged for lost or damaged books checked out on their IDs. Patrons are personally responsible for paying all fines that they incur for overdue items and for paying the replacement cost of any item lost or irreparably damaged while checked out to them.

Hold Requests (Book Reservations)

Hold requests for library materials on loan can be made by patrons. Reserved books are held for readers at the Circulation Desk not more than one day.

PLEASE NOTE! Be considerate of other patrons. If you have placed a hold request, but no longer need the material, please cancel the request.
