If an item is able to be renewed, we will automatically renew it before its due date. You can also renew an item through your account or by contacting us.
Items can be renewed twice unless they are on hold for someone else. If you want to renew an item for a second time you will need to contact us. Items cannot be renewed for a second time through your account.
Items can be returned to any of the libraries in the Four County Library System. BCPL provides return boxes outside our building and an area for returns at our circulation desk.
We are fine free! You will not be charged for an overdue item. We will only charge you if an item is lost or damaged.
Any book that is not returned will eventually be labeled as lost. This means your account will be charged and you will lose access to borrowing privileges. However, that fine will disappear once you return the item.
Sometimes you might receive a letter about your account being sent to collections due to fines. Don't panic! Once you return the item, all fines will be removed.
Fines can be paid in the library at the Circulation Desk. You can pay with a check or cash. We cannot accept debit or credit cards.
You can also pay your fines through your account. You can access your account here.
