RULES FOR LENDING BOOKS 309
6. Reserves. Books may be reserved at the Library by payment
of one cent for a postal card notice. As soon as the book is returned
to the Library, this postal card will be mailed to the person making
the request, and the book will be reserved two days. Requests for
reserves may be made by telephone, in which case the cost of the postal
card will be collected when the borrower calls for the book.
7. Fines. A fine of two cents a day (including Sundays and holidays)
must be paid on each book kept overtime. The holder of a
juvenile card may forfeit the use of his card for six months from the
date upon which an overdue book is returned in place of payment of
this fine. If a book is not returned within three weeks after the date
on which it is due, a messenger will be sent for it. This messenger has
authority to collect the fine incurred and an additional fee of twentyfive
cents for messenger service.
A borrower must pay for books lost or injured while charged on
his card. No books may be borrowed until fines and claims for
damages have been paid.
No claim can be established because of the failure of the Post
Office to deliver notices to or from the Library.
