Trustees approve longer checkout periods for DVDs
Summary
White Pine County Library trustees voted to change the DVD checkout period from three days to two weeks (or four weeks for rural status) to match book loan periods after trustees were told the library holds almost 2,000 DVDs and patrons sometimes view movies in groups.
Trustees approved a revised DVD checkout policy that extends the loan period from the previous three-day window to two weeks for most patrons and four weeks for those granted rural status. Library Director Lori Romero explained the change, noting the library now holds nearly 2,000 DVDs and that some patrons have requested longer loans to accommodate group viewings; Trustee Becky Murdock moved for approval and Jaime Brunson seconded the motion, which the board approved unanimously.
The revision aligns DVD circulation periods with the library's book lending schedule for patrons eligible for rural status and aims to reduce repeated short-term renewals for community groups that use DVDs for events. No amendments or conditions were added to the policy at the meeting; trustees adopted the change as presented.
