Cooperative Borrowing Between Brigham City and Weber County Public Libraries

What Is It? How Does It Work?

  1. This agreement is between the Brigham City Library and the Weber County Library. It is intended to benefit the residents of the two library service areas and applies only to checkout privileges.
  2. This agreement is experimental. It is scheduled to run on a trial basis to December 31, 1999 and may be renewed. However, if either library finds that the agreement is creating an unforeseen burden, it may cancel the agreement with 60 days notice. If this should occur, all cards issued under the agreement will become invalid on the last day of the 60 day notice period.
  3. Patrons are subject to the rules of the library from which they check out materials, including rules related to borrowing periods, fines, and the legal methods used to recover money owed to the library. The rules of the two library systems differ in many ways. Some of the most significant borrowing rules of each library are outlined on the reverse side of this sheet. However, patrons using a library for the first time are encouraged to obtain a copy of the full borrowing rules of that library.
  4. Patrons are responsible for the return of materials to the library from which they are borrowed. Fines will be charged based on the day materials are returned to the loaning library. While there is no routine service for returning materials from one library to the other, the two libraries will attempt to return materials to the library of origin as quickly as possible. However, there are no guarantees of how long this will take. Patrons are therefore strongly encouraged to be careful in returning materials to the proper library system.
  5. This agreement represents an effort by the Brigham City Library and the Weber County Library to expand and make more convenient the library services available to the residents they serve. The success of this cooperative effort depends on residents using the program responsibly. We are interested in your observations as a user of the cooperative borrowing program, and welcome your comments as we decide whether to continue the service beyond its initial trial period.
