Circulation Information

A current, valid Roselle Public Library card is required to borrow materials from the Roselle Public Library.  Roselle Public Library will also lend materials to any patron holding a valid library card from an Illinois public library that participates in reciprocal borrowing.

Library Cards

Every resident of the Roselle Library District is eligible for a Roselle Library card.  A resident library card is permanent and updated every three years.  Proof of identity and residency (photo ID with current address) are required at time of application and renewal.  (Examples include: driver’s license, state ID card, passport, school ID, etc.)   A parent or guardian must sign a responsibility statement for minors under eighteen years of age.  Your library card is to be presented when checking out material.  Treat your library card like a credit card - it is valuable - report lost cards to the library immediately.  A Photo ID is required to reinstate lost library cards.  There is a $2.00 replacement fee for lost or damaged cards.  Roselle Library cards in good standing are welcome at most libraries in the state of Illinois.

Loan Periods

Most items go out for three weeks.

One-week loans include: Adult new fiction, Magazines, Videocassettes, DVDs and Juvenile CD-ROM.

Popular DVDs in the QuickPick DVD collection circulate for 3 days.

Renewals: Items not on reserve can be renewed for the length of the original check out period, with a limit of one renewal per item.

Reserves: Items owned by the Library but currently not available may be placed on hold by Library cardholders in person, over the phone, or via the Internet.

Call (630)529-1641 x. 222 for help with renewals and/or reserves.  Your library card number is necessary for phone transactions.

A Book Drop Return is located to the right of the main entrance of the library.  This may be used 24 hours a day for all materials except CD’s, CD-ROM’s. DVD’s, and Video’s.

Fines and Fees

Fines are charged at 10 cents per item per day overdue for most items. DVDs and videos are charged at 50 cents per day, per item.  Overdue notices are sent for items overdue 8 days or 16 days.  Borrowing privileges will be blocked if fines equal $5.00 or more, until the fines are are paid.  Patrons will be billed for items not returned.  If an item is not returned in 59 days, the item is considered lost and full replacement cost, plus a processing fee, is charged to the patron.
