Last updated 04/17/19
Listed below are the current hold policy restrictions for patrons of NC Cardinal Libraries requesting materials from outside their library system.
These restrictions do not reflect policies that affect a library’s “own” patrons.
All libraries have 6-month age hold protection on newly-active items. All libraries have Reference material as non-holdable.
