Circulation Policies and Procedures
Items checked out on the Bookmobile may be kept for four weeks, or until the next return visit to the stop of original check out.
Items may be returned to the Bookmobile or any San Joaquin Valley Library System (SJVLS) Library.
Most items may be renewed twice. Renewals can be done in-person, by telephone at (559) 675-7871 or by accessing your account online via the ValleyCat (Online Catalog) Website or App [Apple | Google Play]
Note: The first renewal is automatic where as the second renewal requires some form of contact mentioned above.
No late fines are charged for any items returned; however, items are considered lost when they become four weeks overdue. The cost of the item and a processing fee are charged for lost and damaged items.
Unresolved fees may result in the loss of library privileges and/or referral to a billing agency.
