Note: BORROWING AND RENEWING MATERIALS
- Your library card or a valid ID must be presented to withdraw materials.
- You are responsible for all materials borrowed on your card.
- Your first library card is free. Lost cards replacement fee is $1.00.
- You can renew materials either in person
at the library, by phone at
978-664-4942, or online. - You must ask for a note to be added to your record, which gives other people permission to pick up your items, or you may give another person your library card. This policy includes other family members.
- As of July 1, 2008, there will be a late fee on
DVDs: $1.00 a day, with a $3.00 cap, per DVD. Items that
are lost or not returned for other reasons
will be billed at the purchase/replacement prices. The new limit will be 10.
Videocassettes will not be subject to fines. - Manage your requests
and find out about your items before they're overdue:

Thank you to Century 21/Spindler & O'Neil for providing the library with card sleeves.
