Library card holders are able to borrow materials from the Hastings Public Library and any library in the Lakeland Library Cooperative with a card in good standing (no overdue materials or fines in excess of $10.00). Materials borrowed from other libraries must be returned to the library from which they were checked out.
Loan periods for most items are three weeks. Items can be renewed for one additional loan period either online through the “My Account” feature, by telephone or at the library if there are no holds on the items. Back issues of magazines, DVDs, videos and computer games circulate for 1 week.
Holds can be placed on books in the Lakenet catalog for delivery at Hastings Public Library. Holds can be placed online through My Account, by phone or at the library.
Through My Account, you can manage your library PIN, place holds and renew items. There is also a history feature that will allow you to check which items you have checked out over time. Signing up for email notifications will generate a courtesy notice three days prior to any items’ due dates and allow you quick notifications when holds are received at the library.
