The Union Public Library reserves the right to place limits on circulating materials because of high demand.
Union Public Library materials may be returned to either the Main Library or Vauxhall Branch, regardless of where the material were borrowed. Book return boxes (open 24/7) are provided at each location for the return of library materials.
Chromebook laptops/hotspots and Library of Things must be returned inside the library.
If a patron wishes another person to pick-up library materials for them, the patron must give that authorized person the patron’s library card. In that way, the library staff will know that the patron has authorized someone other than the patron to retrieve materials from the library.
