Library Guidelines

We would like to present to our members, the guidelines to be followed so that they are aware of what is to be expected:

No food or drink is allowed in the library.

All patrons must be 14 and over. A parent's signature is required on the membership form for patrons between ages 14 and 17.

To be able to check out items, a patron's account and personal profile need to be valid, up to date, and in good standing.

A maximum of two items can be checked out by a patron at a time.

Some library items are designated as reserved and cannot be checkedout. Such items can be used while in the library. When in doubt about an item, please always ask a librarian.

All items should be returned by their due date. Otherwise, late fees will apply. An item can be returned using the book drop in case you come after hours. The following table summarizes the due dates for different items and the late fee per day.

Item Checkout Period Late Fees per Day
Soft cover books 2 Weeks $0.25
Video Tapes 1 Week $0.50
Cassettes 1 Week $0.25
CDs 1 Week $0.50
DVDs 1 Week $0.50

An item can be renewed as long as no one else has requested it.

A lost or damaged book needs to be replaced at the patrons expense.

A patron with a delinquent account will not be able to checkout any more items till paying their dues.

Computer usage is restricted to educational and research purposes.

In the event of changing circumstances, patrons are expected to comply with these changes deemed necessary by the ICC Library staff.
