Loan Period - Thirty days (30) unless there is a faculty generated recall. It is incumbant upon the patron to return the recalled book(s) as soon as possible so that fellow students may have the opportunity to use the materials for their studies. Up to ten books may be checked out. Only five items per subject may be checked out. 

Renewal - Books may be renewed just once in person or by emailing the Library Manager. Renewals may not be done over the phone.

Returns - Books should always be returned by their due date to the circulation desk or to the book drop after hours. The book drop is located outside the Library front door.

Reserve Items - We have a "Closed Reserve Policy" so Reserve books may only be used in the library for two hours at a time with a two books per person limit.

Overdue fines - 25 cents per day per item for all library materials. Fines are only assessed on the days the Library is open.

Lost Items - The full charge to the patron will include the current market price of the book(s), the fines, and a $15.00 processing fee per item.

Additional Locations and Collections
 

Capital Bible Seminary is a member of the Washington Theological Consortium. The libraries of the Washington Theological Consortium contain over one million volumes in theology and related disciplines. Students and faculty who hold a currently valid ID from a WTC school are eligible for borrowing privileges at WTC libraries during the academic year. Please inquire at the library circulation desk.

Policy

"A faculty member or student who wishes to borrow books must first present a consortium form, validated for the current semester and signed by the home librarian from the Consortium member school, and a photo ID, preferably a student ID card from the Consortium member school." (Policy Adopted January 2005)

The staffs of the libraries are prepared to assist you, to explain their collections in more detail, and to answer your questions.
