"A book is the only place in which you can examine a fragile thought without breaking it, or explore an explosive idea without fear it will go off in your face... one of the few havens remaining where a man's mind can get both provocation and privacy."

—Charles Langbridge Morgan

We do not impose many restrictions on the use of your card, but there are a couple!

 

 Restrictions on your end:

  •  Berwyn allows its residents up to forty (40) holds in their hold queue at one time.

Restrictions on our end:

  • The Berwyn Public Library DOES NOT Inter-Library Loan FICTION DVD/VHS.

The catalog will allow you to place the hold; however, we cannot receive it.

  • We DO receive NON-FICTION DVD/VHS - which includes "Season X" of your favorite TV show!

 

If you're not sure if your DVD is fiction or non-fiction, give the Audio-Visual Department a phone call - (708) 795-8000 x 3085.  Our staff will gladly place the hold for you over the phone.
