When renewing materials, please have your CLAN card available. If you need assistance in using the CLAN online catalog to renew materials, just ask or telephone the reference desk for assistance. Patrons will not be allowed to renew a CLAN card until the record is clear of fines or charges. Since it is not possible for library staff to check the shelves at another library for an item or items a patron claims to have returned to that library, it is the patron's responsibility to contact the library to which he or she returned the items. In kind replacements are not accepted.
Some libraries prefer that non-print materials be returned directly to the owning library.
If you should borrow non-print materials from a library other than SKPL, please inquire at the owning library as to its specific policy. A reserve may be placed on any item not on our shelves or owned by another CLAN library, with the exception of reference materials, museum passes, and most audio-visual materials. Please note that some CLAN libraries do allow reserves on audio-visual materials. Patrons can either place the hold themselves from the public access catalog in the library or from home through the online catalog on the SKPL website. Reference staff is available to guide patrons through this process and will place holds for patrons who need assistance.
