A maximum of ten books may be checked out at one time.
Loan periods are for four weeks with one renewal period of four more weeks.

Materials borrowed from Hurst Library must be returned directly to the Hurst library.
Overdue fines will be billed to the patron’s library and the library will be responsible for charges. Overdue rates are $.25 per day per item.
