Extended Lend Periods
Library patrons may be granted extended loan periods for a special need or situation, example, to cover a vacation, illness, or special research project. The library staff will make the determination for each request. School district employees, such as teachers, may be allowed extra lending time to cover class projects or research. In this case, the teacher must have a current library account and will be solely responsible for all library materials checked out. If the library item requested is from another MORE library, this rule does not apply, as the Colfax Public Library does not have the authority to extend check out dates from other libraries. Other individuals qualifying for an extended lending period include nursing home residents, homebound patrons, and other patrons at the discretion of the library staff. New books will not be granted extended lending periods.
