Interlibrary Loan Policies

Interlibrary Loans are items that we cannot get from another SPLASH Library or through Link+.

• If a renewal is requested, the item must be returned to the Benicia Library pending approval by the owning library.
• The item is due by the original due date, pending the renewal. Items must be returned to avoid late fees.
• A maximum of two (1) renewal request is allowed per item, if approved by the lending library.
• Overdue interlibrary loan items must be returned prior to new requests being processed.
• Charges incurred for lost items from the lending library will be placed on the patron’s account.
• Damaged items will be charged the full replacement cost.
• Interlibrary loan items may be subject to immediate recall.
• Failure to return items by the due date, may result in a suspension or loss of interlibrary loan privileges for the patron.
