Lending Period and Borrowing Privileges
Borrowing materials from Henry Buhl 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.
Circulation shuts down 15 minutes before closing, so plan accordingly. Books and reserves returned after shut down will be held until morning and checked in without penalty.
Lending Periods and Fine Schedules for Students, Faculty/Staff, Campus Family and for Grove City Borough Residents
