Circulation Policies

• A valid library card from Cannell Library is required to borrow Clark College library materials including course reserves that are restricted to library use only.
• All current Clark College students, faculty and staff may obtain a library card at the Cannell Library Check Out Desk by presenting picture identification and confirmation of their current mailing address regardless of residence.
• Residents of community college service district 14 and over age 16 may apply for a Cannell Library card with valid picture identification and proof of current residence.
• Cardholders are responsible for the prompt return and the physical condition of any items checked out on their card. Lost or stolen cards must be reported.

• Books in the general collection are loaned for 21 days. If any item is overdue, it must be returned or renewed before any more materials may be checked out. A maximum of 2 renewals is allowed provided there are no holds for the item. All circulating items are subject to recall at any time.
• Reference books, periodicals, most reserves for classes and certain other designated items are not permitted to be removed from the library. A total limit of 15 Cannell Library items checked out per library card will be enforced.
