What are the librarys loan periods and how many items may I check out?
LOAN PERIODS & RENEWALS The loan period is 3 weeks for most library materials. To serve as many people as possible, restrictions may apply to the number of items of a particular type that can be borrowed at one time: Maximum # of CDS – 20 Maximum # of DVDs, cassette tapes & videos (in any combination) – 20 Most materials may be renewed up to two times, if there are no reserves on the materials. To renew without coming to the library, call TELECIRC 650-638-0399 or use the online catalog. Most library materials may be returned at any of the 32 public or community college libraries in San Mateo County. An after hours book drop is available for the return of items when the library is closed. OVERDUE NOTICES A telephone, email or postcard reminder is given when materials are 14, 28 and 42 days overdue. A bill is sent for replacement costs when materials are 2 months overdue. After two months, unreturned items or overdue balances are sent to Collections.
