When do items have to be returned?
In most cases, items go out for two weeks. Exceptions are
videos (some go out for only two days) and audio-visual equipment
(overnight).
EACH day EACH item is late, we charge as follows:
| Books, cassettes, 14-day videos, and CD's | 10 cents per day per item |
| "Book Express" items | 30 cents per day per item |
| All 2-day videos and DVDs | $1.00 per day per item |
| Audio-Visual equipment | $5.00 per day per item |
More about returning items...
We have a handy book-drop where you can return items before or after
hours. Both books and non-print items (such as videos) may be returned in
the drop. Please remember that late materials returned in the book-drop are
assessed normal fines.
Renewing items
If the item is not reserved you may have it for another two weeks.
2-day videos, DVDs, and AV equipment may NOT be renewed. Renew in person,
or by phone. You may also renew or reserve items online at http://www.gcls.org/catalog.
