COURTESY BORROWING GUIDELINES
CHECKOUT PROCEDURES

You must always present your current ACC Library Borrower Card and a photo ID to check-out material.

MAXIMUM CHECKOUT

You may have no more than 5 items checked out at one time. The Library marks all items with a due date. It is your responsibility to know when items are due.

  • Books are loaned for two weeks.
  • Items not requested by another borrower may be renewed twice.
OVERDUE NOTICES

As a matter of courtesy, a first notice usually is sent when an item is overdue. A second notice is sent 4 weeks later. Notices are sent to the e-mail address or home address you provide the Library. You are responsible for maintaining a current address with the Library.

OVERDUE CHARGES AND PROCEDURES
  • Circulating books: $0.25 per day per item; maximum fines per item $25.00.
  • Circulating videos: $1.00 per day per item; maximum fines per item $25.00.
  • If you have 2 or more items currently overdue, further checkouts will be blocked until the items are returned.
  • If any material is overdue more than 4 weeks and/or fines are not paid, you will be barred from further checkout and use of library services. Excessive unpaid fines may result in legal action.

LOST OR DAMAGED ITEMS

Items will be presumed lost if not returned within 4 weeks from the due date. You will be responsible for lost charges after 4 weeks. Lost or damaged charges include replacement or repair cost of each item, plus any fines that have accrued, plus a $10 processing fee for each item.
