Services and Policies

Circulation policy statement

All borrowers must present a validated Williamsburg Technical College identification card with an affixed library barcode or a WTC library card each time loans are made. The first card is free and replacement cards are five dollars each. All individuals who borrow LRC/library material assume responsibility for that material. Each borrower should be aware of the material’s loan period and should make every effort to return material promptly. The due date is stamped on slip inside of book. The last date stamped is the return date. Books lost or damaged beyond repair will be billed at the replacement cost plus a five dollar processing fee. All accounts with the Library must be cleared by the end of each term. Students may not register for a new term or graduate if they hold a delinquent record.

In rare cases it may become necessary to suspend borrowing privileges. Failure to return books, pay fines, or pay for lost or damaged books may result in loss of borrowing privileges.

Interlibrary loan

The Williamsburg Technical College Library participates in the Southeastern Library Network (SOLINET) in sharing the resources of member libraries. All WTC students, faculty, and staff needing materials not available in the WTC library may submit requests through the interlibrary loan service. Borrowers will be responsible for any charges incurred. Please allow at least two weeks for receipt of requested materials. The library staff will notify you when your request is available.
