Loan Rules

How can I borrow something that the library doesn't own?

If you need a book, DVD, or other item that is not at the Reddick Library, ask us to borrow it from another library for you. You can also place a hold on it through the online card catalog.

How do I know when to pick up the item?

Once your item arrives at the library, you will either receive an automated phone call or an email letting you know the item is available for pick up. Visit the library to pick up your item or schedule a curbside pickup by calling 815-434-0509. The item will be sent back to its home library if not picked up within six days.

What Policies should I be aware of when borrowing something from Reddick Library?

There are several policies of note depending on what is being borrowed and the method in which it is borrowed:

Circulation Policy

Fine & Fee Policy

Interlibrary Loan Policy
