Circulation & Rules

Check-out: Everyone who patronizes the LRC must check-out ALL books and other materials at the circulation desks for the Library or the Media Center Services. A maximum of seven (7) items may be checked out at one time. You are responsible for all materials borrowed with your Library/Media Center Services Card.

Renewals: Library and Media Center Services materials (except reserve materials) may be renewed once if not needed by another patron. Renewals take place in person with the item to be renewed at the appropriate circulation desk.

Return of Materials: All library and media materials are to be returned to the LRC when due and in good condition. When the LRC building is closed, books and media materials may be returned via the book return box near the entrance of the LRC or the book return box east of the LRC.

Fines: Fines for overdue materials will be assessed at the rates listed in the "Circulation Rules." Fines will also be assessed for any damage to LRC materials and equipment. Fines totaling $5.00 or more will block a patron from further check-out of materials until paid. All unpaid fines at the end of each academic semester will be reported to the Yuba College Records Office and grades, transcripts, benefits, and paychecks will be withheld until the fines are paid.
