Rules on Borrowing
- Students may start borrowing books and other reading materials for room use only during the first week of classes.
- Lending out of books for home/overnight use to students shall start one (1) week after the first day of the regular classes during the regular terms.
- Books for home/overnight use are issued to students at 3:00 pm or two hours before closing time and to be returned the following school day at/before 9:00 am.
- Students are allowed to borrow two (2) books of different titles at a time (one (1) Filipiniana and one (1) General Collection or Fiction book or any combination of two).
- Books borrowed for overnight can be renewed only when there is no prior request from other students. In this case, books can only be renewed twice to give other students the chance to use the material. However, if the book is overdue, renewal is strictly prohibited unless overdue fine is settled.
Borrowing Privileges
- A Borrower’s Card secured from the library upon enrolment must be presented and be used every time a student borrows material from the library.
- The Borrower’s Card is non-transferable. Borrowing or lending the Borrower’s Card would result in loss of library privileges. Consequently, both the lender and the borrower shall be sanctioned.
