Lending Period and Fine Schedule

Buhl Library Info

Curriculum Library Info

Borrowing materials from both the Henry Buhl Library and the Hamilton Curriculum Library  is considered a privilege rather than a right. Lending periods and borrowing privileges vary according to the status of the user, but the use of a valid borrower's card to check out materials implies agreement by the borrower to abide by the assigned due dates and to return the materials in good condition. Failure to meet either requirement may result in fines and/or the loss of privileges.
