Longer loan periods starting Monday 29 November 2021

Our loan periods have changed! Based on what the community has been telling us, we've lengthened the loan periods for almost all our items. Most books (excluding Hot Picks) can now be borrowed for four weeks instead of three, and DVDs can be borrowed for two weeks instead of one.

The standard renewal limit is now one, unless someone has reserved it, instead of two. However, always ask us if you need something for longer due to illness or other difficulties, as we are happy with making exceptions in special circumstances.
