These kits are conveniently located at our Rutherford and East Maitland branches.
Loan Duration
Our Book Club Kits have a generous six-week loan period. This duration allows for easy pickup, distribution, hosting your club meeting, and returning the kit to the library. Each library card holder can have up to two kits checked out and two on hold. However, please be aware that Book Club Kits cannot be renewed, so make the most of your six weeks!
Returns
When it's time to return your Book Club Kit, please remember that they must be brought back to the library during opening hours and cannot be returned through the chute. All the contents of the kit must be returned together. If it's more convenient, you can return Book Club Kits to any branch, and we'll ensure they get back to Rutherford Library through our efficient box delivery system. Our dedicated team will inspect each returned kit to ensure that all copies and additional printed materials, such as guides, questions, and tracking sheets, are present and in good condition.
