as non-library staff patrons, including processing, lost book replacement, and billing
charges when books become long overdue. |
|

Library
materials must be checked out by authorized circulation staff at the appropriate circulation desk. |
|

nor otherwise alter their library patron account. |
|
| 5. |
Library
staff members who neglect to return or renew their library materials in a timely way will be liable

Library staff members may not renew materials for which they have been
billed for replacement costs. Such materials must be returned to the owning
library, where authorized circulation staff will make all appropriate adjustments. |
