What you should know about returning books:

• All items should be returned to our outdoor dropbox, located on the corner of the alley to the east and Market Street 

  ---

  All items are being quarantined for at least 5 days upon return before being checked out to anyone else.     

• ---

• The items will be removed from your account at that time.

•  Because we are quarantining items for a more than adequate amount of time and are taking every precaution, we ask that you do not use cleaning products on the materials.  Many products may damage the items.
