Books borrowed from other libraries through NOBLE or Interlibrary Loan may still accrue fines.
Materials that aren’t returned for 42 days (6 weeks) past the due date will incur a replacement cost, which is the cost of the item + a $15 processing fee. These items will automatically be changed to “long overdue” at 42 days. Students, staff, faculty, and public patrons who have lost items must pay the replacement cost + a $15 processing fee.
To pay fines and replacement costs in cash, stop by the circulation desk in the Jenks Library lobby.
Credit or debit payments are only available for charges over $1 with MasterCard, Visa, and Discover.
Charges will appear as LIBRARY-NOBLE on your statement.
Your Gordon ID card is your library card. When checking out materials at the library you must use your own Gordon ID card or supply a picture ID. With your ID card you can:
Gordon-Conwell students can borrow materials using their Gordon-Conwell ID after initially registering at the circulation desk with a seminary ID and a photo ID.
NOBLE patrons can borrow materials using their local library card from any NOBLE Library.
Massachusetts residents who are not NOBLE patrons can also borrow materials using their local public library card after initially registering at the circulation desk with a local library card and a photo ID.
