Resource sharing is an important component in this affiliation. Materials are shared among District libraries via a courier service. The Eaton Library actively participates in the resource sharing of all types of materials in order to obtain resources of interest to local patrons and share resources with other residents of the District. Items are checked out to patrons based upon lending policies of the owning library. Fees for damaged or lost materials are assessed by the owning library per its policies. However, overdue fines are assessed based upon the item’s checkout location.
