Reference books will not be issued. Every member will be allowed to consult any reference book during the school hours and outside the school hours till 3:00 p.m.
The librarian may call for a book at one time even if the normal period of loan has not expired.

If the book is not returned at the expiry of the period of loan or after the Librarian has called for it even within the period of loan, a fine Rs.1/- per day of delay will be charged. Fine shall be collected by the Librarian and the fact notified in the defaulter’s card, until such a fine is collected from the defaulter, no book shall be issued to him or her.
