Policy and procedures on Inter-library Loan:

• A request should be made in person or by telephone
• Eldora Library patrons who are good standing may use this service.  Open Access patrons need to request interlibrary loans through their home libraries.
• The material requested should have been published at least six months prior to the request.  Some libraries will not loan their newest items.
• The service is offered free to patrons, but if you care to help defray the cost of shipping, a voluntary contribution is appreciated.
• In most cases, material can be kept for 3 or 4 weeks.  The lending library sets the due date.  There are no renewals unless special arrangements are made.
• There is an overdue fee of ten cents per item for every day the item is late.
• Interlibrary loan items must be treated with special care.
• Items must be returned to the circulation desk.
