Obtaining a Library Card To borrow materials from the LSTC collection, you must have a valid library card. LSTC students, faculty and staff receive a bar coded sticker on their ID cards and must be entered in the library circulation database. To obtain a library card, residents of Linn and Osage County must present a picture ID, such as a driver's license and proof of their current residence address, such as a recent bill from the utilities company. Borrowing privileges are restricted to 10 print materials from the LSTC Library collection. Library service may be denied if a user does not return overdue materials, does not pay outstanding fines, removes materials illegally or repeatedly abuses Library policies.
Overdue Materials Overdue notices will be e-mailed or mailed to all borrowers. Materials, not returned fourteen days after the date due and two overdue notices, will be billed and a charge will appear on the monthly statement. Charges, not paid within 30 days after the billing date, will be sent to a collection agency.
Returning Materials Those using materials, whether in or out of the library, are responsible for any deterioration in the condition of the material while in their use, as well as the timely return of the materials. Borrowers who lose or damage library materials will be assessed a replacement and processing fee. If a lost item is found and returned in good condition before the replacement has been ordered, the replacement cost will be refunded. November 2007 |
