Permanent residents of, or property owners in, the Sullivan West School District

are eligible to become members of the Western Sullivan Public Library.

 

 

An application must be completed and two forms of identification presented. 

The ID must contain the applicant’s signature and local address.

 

 

All children under the age of 16 must have the signature of a parent or legal guardian

on the application form.  Parent or guardian will be responsible

for materials borrowed by children.

 

 

Members are required to notify the Western Sullivan Public Library of changes

in name, address, or telephone number.

 

 

Borrowers will be responsible for returning all books on time. 

If books or any other material, excluding videos, are returned late, a fine of ten cents per day

will be charged for each item.  Two dollars per day will be charged for each late video. 

Books that are not in high demand may be renewed for two weeks

either by telephone or by using iPac on the Internet.

 

 

Borrowing privileges will be suspended if materials are not returned and/or fines remain unpaid.

 

 

If a person who does not live in the Sullivan West District wants to obtain a library card,

he/she must go to the library serving the district in which they pay taxes. 

After obtaining a library card from their “home library” they are eligible

for direct access.  Direct Access: A patron holding a library card with valid direct access privileges,

from any other library belonging to the Ramapo Catskill Library System

will be entitled to borrow materials from the Western Sullivan Public Library.

 

 

Temporary residents of the Western Sullivan Public Library district

are eligible for limited borrowing privileges upon payment of the required fee.

 

 

Any out-of-state residents will be required to pay the membership fees

set by the Board of Trustees before obtaining full library privileges. 

The membership year runs from July 1 to June 30 of the following year. 

Fees will be prorated according to the month the patron applies for a library card.
