Homer Township Public Library

Borrowing From the Bookmobile

• Use your library card to borrow items from the Bookmobile.
  
  
• Any Homer Township (including Homer Glen) resident may obtain a library card on the Bookmobile. You will need to provide proof of residence (such as a driver's license). Your first library card is free, a replacement card is $2.00.
  
  
• Items on the Bookmobile may be borrowed for a two week period.
  
  
• No fines will be charged for bookmobile items returned late.
  
  
• If an item is not returned after six weeks, an overdue notice will be sent and you will be billed for the item, along with a processing fee.
  
  
• Your borrowing privileges will be stopped until your record is cleared, either by returning the items or paying for them.
  
  
• If you don't see a title you want, ask the Bookmobile staff for it or fill out a request slip. We will try to get the item for you from the main Library or from another library in time for the next scheduled visit to your stop. (There may be a longer wait for popular items.) You may also request items owned by any library in our catalog network directly through our online catalog.
  
  
• Most bookmobile items may be borrowed for 14 days, including videos and best sellers.
  
  
• Most items may be renewed twice, unless they have been reserved by someone else. Items may be renewed in person at either the main Library or Bookmobile, by phone (708-301-7908), or renewed through our online catalog.
  
  
• Items borrowed checked out from the Bookmobile may be returned to the main library, and vice versa.
