Borrowing Privileges-Eligibility to Borrow

Individuals presenting valid borrower’s cards issued by the Maple Park Public Library are eligible to borrow materials from the Maple Park Public Library when the following conditions are met:

1. No materials which are more than one circulation period are overdue on their card.

2. No outstanding fines in aggregate excess of $5.00 have accrued to their card.

The library staff may not waive these regulations without the specific permission of the library director, however, the patron may request and receive a 24-hour hold on the item(s) he or she wishes to check out to allow the patron to correct the situation which has resulted in loss of eligibility to borrow.

Individuals presenting a valid card from another public library in Illinois may borrow materials from the Maple Park Public Library. The card must have the name of the individual presenting it, and an expiration date in the future. The card must be either a resident borrower’s card or a system borrower’s card to be valid for reciprocal borrowing. Patron must be in good standing at their home library.
