BORROWING GUIDELINES

Borrow and Renew

All material from the Milton Public Library is checked out for two weeks. If no one is waiting for the item, it can be renewed up to two times. Individuals can renew their material in person, on the phone, or by logging in to their library account.

Item Limitations

Patrons are limited to five DVD checkouts at one time. There are no limits on checking out other materials.

Late Materials

Milton Public Library does not charge fines or late fees, but this model only functions well when people return their material in a reasonable time period. Individuals with materials more than four weeks overdue will receive a bill for the total value of all checked out material. At eight weeks overdue, items will be considered lost and the patron’s card will be restricted. At 10 weeks overdue, Homecard status will be revoked. Homecard status can be reinstated after the return of all materials, pending a meeting with and permission from the director.

Payments

The library accepts cash and check payment for lost or damaged items. We do not accept credit cards. Checks should be made payable to Milton Public Library. 

We no longer accept replacement copies for a lost or damaged item.

PRINTING, COPYING, & SCANNING

Black and white printing and copying is available at the library at a cost of .25 cents per page. Color printing is available at .50 cents per page. We do provide wireless printing. Request password at the front desk.

Library staff can scan a limited number of documents which can then be sent electronically to an individual’s email account.
