BORROWING LIBRARY MATERIALS
Please treat all library materials and property with care.
Patron accounts must be in good standing (fines under $5.00 and no long overdue items) in order to borrow UCPL materials. Patrons with fines of any amount or with overdue items will not be allowed to borrow Interlibrary Loans.
Patrons must present their library card when checking out items. If a patron does not have his/her library card when visiting the library, staff will look up the information after the patron has presented proper identification/Union county driver’s license or Union county personal identification. A notation will be added to the patron’s record, so that if the library card is not found by the next visit, a replacement card may be issued for a fee of $5.00 in order for the patron to check out materials.
The term for borrowing library materials is 30 days (except DVDs, new releases and Interlibrary Loans). Circulation time for DVDs is 5 days, circulation time for new book releases is 14 days. Items not on reserve for another patron may not be renewed. Interlibrary loan items will be due accordingly to lending library instructions.
A total of three (5) DVDs may be checked out at one time. There is a limit of 15 on all other circulating items that may be borrowed at one time.
Only the person to whom a card is issued may use that card to check out items.
