Book Club In A Bag Kits

Borrowing Policy Any patron of a CLAMS member library may borrow a bag provided they pick up the bag at the Snow Library location and return it here.
Requests for kits must be made through a library reference staff member by phone or in person. The bag will be checked out on the library card of the person picking up the bag. That person is completely responsible for the bag and all of its contents. You may reserve a bag up to 6 weeks advance. The loan period is 6 weeks. No more than 1 kit can be borrowed at one time by a patron.
There are no renewals on book discussion kits. Please check the contents before returning the kit.
The replacement costs of individual parts of the kit will be at least $25 for each particular item. Please note that you may not keep a bag past its due date, if you do, you will be billed for the entire bag.
