Materials may be checked out without a library card if the individual is registered with the Watertown Library and identification is presented. The library has an open policy on checking out videos. However, if you are concerned about your child checking out videos, you may put a block on your child's card that will restrict them from checking out all videos. Temporary limits on numbers of items, loan periods, and renewals may be set for school projects and holiday books. Renewals One renewal is allowed on most materials if they are no more than seven days overdue and have not been requested by another patron.
Renewals extend the loan period of the item for the same amount of time as the original checkout.
Renewals are from the date renewed , not from the original due date. The easiest way to renew an item is to bring it in to the library. All circulating items may be reserved. Videos and CD-ROMs will be held for 2 days. Other reserves will be held for 7 days.
