All items can be renewed twice, unless a hold has been placed on the item.
Holds:
MFRL patrons can place up to 20 holds at a time. If the item is available at another branch, we will transport that item to your desired branch for pickup.
OverDrive Items:
Patrons can place up to four OverDrive holds at a time. OverDrive holds do not affect
regular catalog hold limits, and vice versa. Once the title you have placed on hold
becomes available for check out, you will receive an email indicating the title is
available. You will then have three days to check out the title before it is returned
to the collection.
There is a four item checkout limit for OverDrive books. AudioBooks check out for one or two weeks; eBooks can be checked out for two or three weeks. Most items can be returned early, depending upon the checkout delivery method. OverDrive items can not be renewed and are automatically returned at the end of the lending period.
Interlibrary Loans:
If you are looking for material that MFRL does not own,
we can request items from other systems on your behalf. Each system's ILL policies
are unique. Most systems will not ILL new items, CDs or DVDs. Patrons requesting ILLs must be in good standing;
see our
Interlibrary Loan Policy.
There is a $5.00 fee per item and payment is expected when the ILL request is fulfilled. Please visit or call your library branch to request an item through ILL.
