William Hessel Library
Patron Borrowing Policy

Borrowing Materials

Anyone may come into the library to use its resources. To check out circulating materials a library patron must present a valid library card and/or photo ID depending on the status of the patron. (see below)

Lake Michigan College students, faculty and staff:

Staff and students must show a valid ID card (driver's license) and class schedule (if a student), available on WaveLink, in order to receive an ID card or have the card updated, or to check out materials. Current staff and students are to use a driver's license or another offical ID photo to check out materials and therefore do not need an ID card to check out library materials.

Students at affiliated colleges and universities:

Students taking classes from other colleges and universities (e.g., Siena Heights) offering degree programs in conjunction with Lake Michigan College have full library borrowing privileges. Also, faculty and staff associated with these programs may borrow library materials. ID cards are available at the library circulation desk at the Napier campus and at the main offices at the campuses at Bertrand Crossing, South Haven, and M-TEC. NOTE: Library bar code stickers will be attached to these ID cards. LMC students are to just use their official photo ID to check out materials.

Community members:

Lake Michigan College participates in the state-wide Michicard program. Any community member having a Michicard from their local public library at his/hers current place of residence may borrow library materials. Patrons presenting a Berrien Library Consortium Infopass will also be granted borrowing privileges.

Responsibility for borrowed materials and library cards

The library patron is responsible for materials checked out on their card. Allowing others to check out materials on your card, makes you, the card holder, responsible for the safe and timely return of those materials to the library.

The library charges a $1.00 fee for replacement cards.
