Too much stress cannot be laid on the importance of returning films within the period for which they are hired. When films are retained by borrowers beyond the date they are due for return, other Library Members have to be dis- appointed. When you hire films, therefore, please return them to the Library on the day they are due. You would be disappointed if the films you booked were delayed — do not disappoint others by failing to return those you hire in good time.

Orders for Library Films wanted for week-end showing should be received by the "Kodascope" Library not later than the first post on Thursday.
Time permitting, your orders will be acknowledged. You will realise that we cannot guarantee to send the films you order, as unauthorised retention or severe damage by other hirers may make their despatch impossible. Every effort will, however, be made to send them.

Hire Periods
Hire is charged for each day on which films are held by you, whether you use them or not.
