Where can I return materials I have borrowed?
You may return items to the Wood-Ridge Memorial Library or to any library in the BCCLS consortium. In addition, you may use the bookdrop on the porch of the Wood-Ridge Library for any items that do not contain a tape or disc. Items with tapes or discs that are left in the bookdrop will be fined $1.00 each.
How may I renew items?
- You may renew items online with your PIN. Come to the circulation desk to obtain a PIN or if you have forgotten it.
- You may call or visit the library with your library card and/or the item(s) you wish to renew. (You must present have at least 1 of these.)
What if I lose an item?
You will be charged for the library items you lose. Replacement costs will vary depending on the item.
