A valid Mount Mary College ID Card (or a valid ID Card from a SWITCH Consortium Libary) needs to be presented at each "Check-Out" transaction.

Most Library items are loaned for 28 days, with shorter loans at the end of terms; AV items are loaned for 7 days; items from other SWITCH Libraries (DVDs, VHS Videos, CDs) may have shorter loan periods.

Circulating material (except Reserve items) may be renewed if there is no "Hold" on the item; Renewals may be done at http://topcat.switchinc.org/patroninfo, by phone at 414-256-0190, or in person at the Circulation Desk, 2nd floor.

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) materials are sometimes eligible for renewal. To check, please email the ILL Librarian at mmc-edoc@mtmary.edu or parkerr@mtmary.edu.

Reserve items check out for 2-hours, 1-day, 3-day and 7-day loan periods; 2-hour Reserve Items are for "In-Library Use" only.

Patrons are responsible for items checked-out in their name, for the payment of overdue charges and for replacement fees of lost items: "A student who is delinquent in tuition / fee payments (including parking fees and Library fines) is not entitled to grades, credits, transcripts or participation in graduation exercises." (Mount Mary College Bulletin, 2008-2010, p. 23)

Library privileges are not transferable.

Overdue notices are sent to a patron's email address, or MMC mailbox, or home address; failure to receive a notice does not alter a patron's responsibility to return items nor exempt a patron from overdue penalties

Overdue charges. Books: $50.00 replacement fee; AV items are $1.00 per day per item; The fine is not collected until the 4th day; after the 4th day, a $65.00 replacement fee AND a non-refundable $10.00 processing fee are charged; Replacement fees are waived if items are returned

Haggerty Library is to be a place for study. The Learning Commons may be somewhat noisy; quiet study space can be found on the 2nd floor. Be considerate of others and keep conversation to a minimum; please leave the Library if you receive a cell phone call; set phones to vibrate or to silence while in the Library; when you leave the Library to make or take a call, take your belongings with you (Haggerty Library is not responsible for lost personal items).

No drinks without lids or tobacco products are allowed in the Library.

Library hours are posted at the Library entrance, at campus bulletin boards and on the Library webpage at http://www.mtmary.edu/ha.htm
