Loan Policies

Due dates are negotiable, based on the length of time you will need, and whether or not there are other reservations already in place. Pick the dates you would prefer to receive and return the item(s).  Keep in mind that if you make a reservation after 3:00 pm on a Thursday, your reservation will not be processed until the following Tuesday morning when the Resource Centre reopens.

Items for preview usually go out for one week; contact us if you need more time.

It is expected that all materials be returned by the due date so as not to inconvenience the next user. Remember, unlike most libraries, borrowers can reserve for specific dates.  If you will not be able to return items by the due date, please contact us to avoid an overdue fine. Loans can be extended as long as this does not interfere with the next reservation.

Please report any damage. Do not try to mend materials. If a replacement is required, the user will be billed for the cost.

Borrowing Fees

Why do we charge borrowing fees? See About Us for information.

Fees will be invoiced when items are loaned; payment by cash or cheque is expected when items are returned. Some groups have accounts with us for materials used in their programs--check with your church, school or organization.
