    GOVERNANCE

    Belgrade Public Library ordinance was adopted by the votes in June 2000, to implement a goal identified in the Town's l998 Comprehensive Plan. There is a seven member Board of Trustees, appointed by the Select Board, which oversees the operation of the Library. The Trustees meet the first Thursday of each month at 7 pm. The public is invited to attend these meetings.

    Borrowing & Renewing: books, magazines, and audio tapes circulate for two weeks. Items may be renewed by phone or email.
    • While fines are not charged for late books, donations to the "overdue guilt basket" are accepted from those who feel they have kept a book longer than their fair share.
    • Books with "NEW" stickers may not be renewed.
    • There is a book return box (with lupines) on the porch for off-hour book returns.
    • Non-Belgrade Patrons may pay a $15 annual fee per family for borrowing privileges.

    Technology: public use of the computers, scanners, and internet is encouraged. Children under 13 must have a parent in the Library while using the Internet. Assistance using the computer is available.
