Back to: Top Books: $0.15 per day, per item. Reserve materials: $2.00 per day, per item. It is the borrower's responsibility to be aware of due dates. Failure to receive a library overdue notice does not excuse the borrower from returning books and paying fines. When a patron borrows items from another campus library, he or she is bound by the policies of the lending library, including payment for lost, damaged, or overdue materials. Lost
and mutilated materials must be paid for at the publisher's current retail price, plus a $10.00
processing fee, per item, for cataloged items. It is College policy that course
registration, graduation, and requests for transcripts will be suspended until all library obligations have
been met. Back to: Top

Certain magazines and journals may also be available in print format in the library's periodical collection. Check for these titles in the Periodical Holdings List (available at the Circulation Desk) or in the Delaware Library Catalog. While these periodicals may not leave the library, articles may be photocopied for 10 cents per page. Interlibrary loan service is available for magazines and journals not owned by the Stanton Campus Library. Such requests may be made in person or online. Back to: Top
Patrons can place an online request for any regularly circulating item in the Delaware Library Catalog. To do so, one must have a library barcode number and PIN, obtained from the library. This is separate from the college MyDTCC username and password. Please contact the Stanton Campus Library for more information. A delivery service for library materials is provided among the Delaware Tech campus libraries. Books and other items from another campus library may be requested, picked up, and returned at the patron's home campus library. The library also
provides interlibrary loan of items not listed in the Delaware Library
Catalog. These requests may be placed in person or online. Lending policies
are dictated by the lending library and the materials are dated
accordingly, with overdue stipulations noted. Please note that it may take several days to obtain requested items.
