to be determined by the lending library.
Library privileges
Privileges shall include book stack access and home-use borrowing.

Borrower patron guidelines of the lending library. All loan procedures
and all charges assessed the cooperative user for overdue books,
lost books, or damaged materials shall also be based on the policies
of the lending library.
The lending library reserves the right to refuse borrowing and
building-use privileges to any individual who violates the regulations
of that library. Any library may deny cooperative borrowing privileges
to any prospective borrower who is delinquent at his or her library
or in any of the cooperating libraries. All fines and charges
are the sole responsibility of the visiting borrower, not their
home institution. Unpaid fines or charges will be forwarded to
the visiting borrower’s home institution and applied to
the borrower’s account there.
