Library Lending Policy and usage
You are allowed to have one book checked out for a maximum of three (3) business days. At any point, we may request a book to be returned; if must be on you if you are at on the General Assembly Campus. Once you have decided on a book to borrow, use the application listed above to “check out” the application. Once you return the book, open and the app again and you will be prompted to check your book back in. It is as simple as that! Note: You may continuously recheck a book out unless otherwise noted.
