Borrowing Privileges

Loan Periods

Patrons may borrow print material, DVDs, audiobooks, and music CDs from the Woodland Public Library for 3 weeks.  Material borrowed from other libraries in the system (Sacramento, Folsom, Colusa, or Sutter) may have different loan periods and may have different limits on number of items checked out.

Woodland Public Library is Fine Free!

The Library encourages patrons to return items in a responsible and timely fashion so other community members may enjoy its shared resources.

While the Library has eliminated fines for its items, patrons will still be automatically billed and have their accounts blocked if items are not returned within 21 days of their due date. Patrons with items kept for more than 30 days past their due date may further be referred to collections and incur a non-refundable $10 fee.

Lost or Damaged Items

  • if you lose a Library item, you will be charged a replacement fee.
  • If you return a Library item damaged, you will be charged a fee. 
  • Fees are payable by check or credit/ debit card.

Overdue fines from other libraries in the system may be different.

Check Out Limits

Patrons may checkout a total of 50 items. The maximum number of DVDs and CDs allowed at one time is 10 items each, for a total of 20 items (included in the overall 50 items).

Email Notification

Patrons with an email account can request email notification when books on hold are ready to be picked up and can be notified 3 days prior to the materials' due date. Email notification is a courtesy but is not guaranteed. It is the patron's responsibility to check on hold items and be aware of material due dates.

Library material may be renewed in person, over the telephone at 530-661-5980, or by the patron's library account online.
