Instructions for Borrowing Materials from the QBFHS Library located at the FamilySearch Centre

The borrower must be a member of the Qualicum Beach Family History Society. Non-members may use the materials on the premises but may not sign out any items.

To sign out a book, map, or CD:

1. 1. 1. Remove the borrowing card from the pocket inside the front or back cover of the item;
      2. Write today’s date including the year, your name, and phone number on the next available line. (A pen is provided.) You may also include your email address if this is how you wish to be contacted;
      3. Place the card in the small file box on the bottom shelf of the library cabinet.

      To sign out a magazine or journal:

      In the red duo-tang notebook on the bottom shelf of the library cabinet, on the next available line, enter today’s date including the year, the name of the periodical, date of the issue, your name and your phone number and/or email address.
      The loan period is one month. A borrowed item may be returned to the library cabinet during the FamilySearch Centre’s open hours.  Items may also be returned to the librarian at the next general meeting of the Society.  Please respect the loan period, as another member may be waiting to borrow the same item.  This is especially important for current periodicals.

Please place returned items in the box provided for this purpose on the bottom shelf of the cabinet. Do not attempt to re-shelve returned items.

Please do not sign out items found in this ‘returned item’ box as they will not have been checked back into the library.

Please do not leave donated materials in the “returned item” box or at the FamilySearch Centre. If you have materials you would like to donate to the Society’s library, please contact the Librarian (at a meeting or through the Society’s website) or any of the other Society directors and your potential donation will be considered for acceptance.
