Circulation Policy:
The Cavan Monaghan Library Board supports a policy of full access to library material as follows:
All materials in the collection may be used by anyone regardless of age.
This policy recognizes that individuals mature socially and in reading comprehension at varying rates, and therefore, have varying needs for information. This policy also recognizes that parents wish to monitor, by their own family standards, what their children read and that the Library’s role is to be a neutral provider of materials for selection by the borrowers. The Library’s responsibility remains that of purchasing carefully to meet the widest range of our patrons needs.
Responsibilities of the borrower:
- To be responsible for all materials borrowed on their card, including payment of fines or charges incurred.
- To present borrower’s card each time Library material is borrowed.
- To notify the Library promptly of any change of address or loss of borrower’s card.
- To observe all rules of the Library.
Parent/Guardian Responsibilities:
- To ensure that their children observe the rules of the Library.
- To monitor their children’s selection of library material according to their own family standards.
