articles, videotapes and other materials regarding
children, families, disabilities, and education. The
library is jointly funded by the Nevada Departments

Guidelines for
Library Use
|
-
Check Out Procedure - You may write or call in
your request for materials. Please include: your
name, address, and phone number. Also include:
Title, author of the items, and the page number
in the catalogue where each item you wish to
borrow is found. Your request will be filled
within one week.
When you receive your materials, you will find
the due date in the front of the item and our
address for returning them.
-
Unavailable Materials - If an item you are
requesting is checked out, you will be notified
by mail or phone and informed of the item's due
date. We will hold your request pending the
return of the item(s) requested that are not
available.
-
Due
Dates - The lending period is for 2 (two) months
from the day the item is shipped. So that
materials are readily available to the network,
it is important that due dates are observed.
-
Renewal - You may renew an item if no one is
waiting for the item. (We will maintain a
waiting list.) You may renew an item once for a
period of 1 (one) month. Call (775) 684-3485 to
renew materials.
-
Past Due - If an item has not been received 5
(five) days after the due date, you will receive
a written past due notice as well as a telephone
reminder. The borrower will be billed for items
not received 30 (thirty) days after the due
date. If library materials are not returned or
replaced, you will not be allowed to use the
library in the future.
-
Check Out Limit - So that we can make as many
items as possible available to the network at
all times, we ask that you check out no more
than 5 (five) items at one time. We will not
ship out additional requests until previously
loaned materials are returned.
-
Damaged/Lost Materials - Our library has
many items which are one-of-a-kind or out of
print, therefore it is imperative that great
care is taken to return all items in the
same condition as they were when sent to
you. These items have been inspected and
shipped in good condition. Upon receiving
these items, you are responsible for any
damage or loss that may occur while in your
possession.
