Out-of-System Interlibrary Loan
Policy
If the South Central Library System does not own the material you need, we can send a request to another library that is not in our library system.
-
Patrons must be in good standing (no fines, no overdue items) and have a valid library card from any of the South Central Library System libraries can place out-of-system requests. You must have your library card number at the time you place your request.
-
Patrons can only request 5 items per week for out-of-system interlibrary loans. If there are more than five requests, you will be asked to submit the additional requests at a later date, as we cannot keep lists of requests.
-
The loan period for out-of-system interlibrary loans is usually 1 to 4 weeks. The owning library determines the loan period for the item. Please use the material promptly as there are no renewals or extentions possible. A 90-day waiting period is required before we can request the item again.
-
The yearly limit for requests is 100 per year.
-
Items are to be returned only to the Baraboo Public Library Adult Services Desk.
-
Do not return items in the book drop.
-
Overdue charges for out-of system interlibrary loans are $1.00 per day.
