What we expect from you
As long as you continue to follow these rules, you will be allowed to use our service. Failure to follow these rules will result in expulsion.
Respect Others
We want to maintain a respectful environment for everyone, which means you must follow these basic rules of conduct:
-
comply with applicable laws
-
respect the rights of others, including privacy and intellectual property rights
-
don’t abuse or harm others or yourself (or threaten or encourage such abuse or harm) — for example, by misleading, defrauding, illegally impersonating, defaming, bullying, harassing, or stalking others
-
don’t abuse, harm, interfere with, or disrupt the services — for example, by accessing or using them in fraudulent or deceptive ways, introducing malware, or spamming, hacking, or bypassing our systems or protective measures. When we index the web to bring you search results, we respect standard usage restrictions that website owners specify in their websites’ code, so we require the same when others use our services
-
don't use bad words in any way
-
respect our staff members. You are also required to obey any of their requests regarding ANY of our books and/or property
If you find that others aren’t following these rules, we allow you to report abuse by you emailing us or speaking to us directly.
Our Books
We request that you respect the following rules, as we are kind enough to lend you our books.
​
-
Keep our books in good condition
-
Do not lose our books
-
Turn your books in on time
-
Do not steal/keep our books
​
Failure to follow these rules will result in a fee, which you must pay or even a permanent ban.
​
We generally don't do late fees until there is a problem. What this means is that if you have an overdue book, we won't fee you unless someone gets in line behind you. Once this happens, you have until the due date, otherwise, a $2.50 fee will be added to your account per week your book is late. If the book is 2 months overdue, we immediately add a $5 fee for lack of communication on your part.
​
Lost or damaged book fees are the book price on Amazon plus tax/delivery in addition to a $5 fee.
​
We only allow 5 books out at a time and 10 holds at a time. (Sorry about the hold limit, we just have a few people who decided to abuse our services with hundreds of holds.) If you are an avid reader and would like more books, please just email us. We will gladly make an exception for you, within reason.
​
We have barcode labels on our books that are removable. You are not to remove any of the barcode labels on our books. Failure to follow this rule will result in a $5 fine.
​
We do reserve the right to add, change or negate fees if we so choose, for any reason.
​
Rules on times for our books are:
-
We generally allow you to keep our books for as long as you want, we just have a few requirements so this rule isn't abused.
-
The standard checkout time is 2 weeks.
-
We allow 1 renewal, 2 weeks for each renewal (which gives you 1 month to read it). Then, if you bring the book to us and we can confirm it is in your possession, we'll renew it again. If you pass that due date, keep on bringing it in, and we'll renew it for you.
-
We don't allow you to renew books if someone else has placed a hold on it
​
Liability
We are NOT liable for any damage done to yourself, your property, to others, or to any books.
