• See loan periods.

Renewal

• Reserve items and laptops cannot be renewed. Items in the circulating collection may be renewed twice if no one has placed a hold on the item. If an item must be returned because the renewals have been exhausted, then the patron must wait at least 24 hours before checking it out again.
• You may renew online, by phone, or in person.

Return

• Books may be returned to any ACC Library.

Notices are sent to the ACC e-mail address provided to the student, faculty, or staff member. Or, it is sent to the surface mail address on record with the College.
