3. Is there a limit on the number of books to be checked out at a time? Answer: There is no limit on the number of books (including audiobooks) that can be checked out. DVDs are limited to 10 per account, Video games are limited to two per account, and music CDs are limited to 15 per account.
4. Can I check out books, movies, and CDs together? Answer: Yes. As long as you do not exceed the individual item limits -- so unlimited books + 10 DVDs + two video games + 15 Music CDs = tons of fun!
5. How long may I check items out for? Answer: The lending period depends on the type of material that you are borrowing:
- Books & Music CDs -- three weeks plus two 2 renewals
- Video Games -- two weeks plus two renewals
- DVDs one to two weeks plus one renewal
- Lending periods may be shortened for items with high demand.
6. Can I order items from other libraries? Answer: Yes. To borrow items from another library in the Army Europe Library system, a request must be placed on the item in the Web catalog. You may place your own requests from home using your My Account, or you may ask your library’s circulation desk staff for assistance placing requests. All libraries lend all circulating materials (e.g. non-circulating materials include reference materials and magazines). For questions about placing requests, please contact a librarian staff member.
7. What happens if I lose a library item? Answer: Library items borrowed by you or your dependents remain your responsibility until the items are returned to the library. If an item is lost, it must be replaced according to our Library Materials Replacement Policy. Contact us for more information.
8. How will I get notified if a library item is past due? Answer: We will send an email to the email address we have on file to notify you if an item is past due. With "My Account," you can also check the status of your account and renew items online.
9. What kind of events or promotions do you put on? Answer: We provide a variety of programs for children and adults. For current and upcoming events, visit our webpage at http://wiesbaden.armymwr.com/europe/wiesbaden/programs/wiesbaden-library.
