Inter-Library Loan:
Materials not available
in our collections that are needed by our cardholders in good
standing may be requested through ILL. Newly published books may not be
requested via ILL until they have been published for six months.
If obtainable, the materials will be sent to Ligonier
Valley Library. The patron must return the
materials to Ligonier Valley Library.
Responsibility for
these materials is the same as for our materials regarding
payment for lost items. The fine on overdue
ILL materials is $1.00 per day. Length of
circulation time varies according to the item, the current
demand, and to policies of the lending library.
Materials requested through ILL will take a minimum of
two weeks to receive. Some may be on order for a few weeks or slightly
longer, depending on factors such as demand and number of copies at the
lending library.
