Borrowing

GAD/C Library material may be borrowed by placing a request for an item through librarian and can borrow 3 copies once a week.

Overdue, Lost or Damaged Material
Library borrowers are responsible for returning or renewing items by their due date. When an item becomes overdue, borrowing privileges will be blocked until the item is returned. And we will charge a fine for overdue item 200Riel per day.

If an item is damaged or lost, borrowers are liable for charges incurred to repair or replace the item. A borrower may replace lost or damaged materials with copies acceptable to the lending library. Such arrangements should be made with the lending library before a replacement is purchased.

Responsibilities of Borrowers
Borrowers are responsible for library materials charged out to them until they are returned to the lending library. Borrowers are prohibited by Library policy from lending their library card to others. Borrowers are responsible for maintaining a current address on file with the Library Privileges Desk. Borrowers planning to be away from their mailing address for a week or more should return material to avoid recall fines.

Borrowers who abuse Library borrowing privileges may have these privileges suspended throughout the Library. Examples of abuse of library borrowing privileges include repeatedly not returning materials on time, not paying replacement bills, not responding to recall notices, not returning library materials even after replacement bills have been issued, and mutilation or damage of library materials.
