The Fine Print

The lending period for materials is two months from the pick up date, including weekends and holidays. A limit of two sets of materials can be checked out at one time. Deposits will be returned upon return of lent materials, and a deposit may be transferred if you are planning on picking up additional materials after returning your initial set. Borrowed materials may be extended by emailing [email protected] before the due date.

Late books will be subject to a $10 fine per each week they are overdue. Books that are more than 10 weeks overdue will be considered lost, and the exact cost of replacement will be determined at the time of loss. The lendee will be responsible for the cost of replacement materials if written in or damaged upon return. Materials should not be photocopied; doing so is a copyright infringement.

Materials must be picked up at the BSA Space (200 Congress Street, 2nd Floor) between the hours of 10 AM and 4 PM, Monday - Thursday.
