BORROWING MATERIALS
Library card holders may borrow items at any Springfield-Greene County Library or bookmobile.
Items may be returned to any Library branch, the bookmobile or Price Cutter Plus Book Stop.
The first-time checkout limit is five items. After that, the limit is 50 items per card.
Items may be renewed for two additional loan periods if no one else is on hold for the item. High priority items (those in great demand) may not be renewed.
Renew items online, in person or call your local branch.
If you have more than three items overdue, or owe more than $10 in fines, fees or charges, you will not be allowed to check out additional items.
Items more than 55 days overdue will be submitted to a collection agency and subject to an additional $15 charge.
