Policy on Library Card Registration The Ridgefield Public Library upholds the American Library Associations Freedom to Read statement, and the Library Bill of Rights. A valid library card must be presented at the circulation desk in order to charge out, pick up or renew library materials. The first library card is free with valid proof of residency. Lost library cards will be replaced upon payment of a $3 fee. Children, age 2 and up, may be issued a library card under the authority of their parent or guardian, who must present 2 pieces of valid identification and co-sign the childs application. The parent/guardian is ultimately responsible for the return of all library materials charged to the childs card and for all the fines and replacement costs incurred by the child. Reciprocal Borrowing and Interlibrary Loan The Ridgefield Public Library is a member of Bergen County Cooperative Library System (BCCLS), which enables residents to have access to resources in all the libraries affiliated with the consortium. BCCLS shares a computer network, a common library catalog, and access to various databases. Any resident with a valid library card in good standing can borrow materials from any BCCLS library direct or through our library. The library may request items from other libraries through a national interlibrary loan system by filling a request form in the library.
Public Computer Rules and Regulations   Internet Policy The Ridgefield Library asks all patrons to remember they are using a public computer in a public area and are expected to act accordingly. Any illegal use of the computer may result in the patron being banned from the library.
