The
librarian will create and maintain an inventory of all materials.
This inventory will be available to the guild members via
the website.
Deposit of a $40 signed, undated, check is required for every
tape or DVD to be checked out.
You are allowed to mail the items to the librarian, but you
are responsible for confirmation/insurance.
If you are going to miss a meeting, you may contact the librarian,
or a board member, to renew the item.
You are allowed to renew any item no more than 2 times.
If an item is late, the librarian will attempt to contact
the person. Once an item is two weeks late, the deposit check
will be cashed.
If someone leaves the guild with outstanding library items,
we cash the check!
Checks must be undated. The librarian must have a current
check before any item can be checked out.
If there is a request for an item that is checked out, the
two parties must work it out.
