Reciprocal Borrowing

An article in the NZ Herald recently announced that North Shore and Rodney Libraries would have a reciprocal borrowing scheme where residents of both regions would be able to join both libraries free of charge. The scheme, which is really reciprocal membership rather than reciprocal borrowing means that residents have more choice in using the library nearest and most convenient to them and more choice in accessing both collections.

While the announcement was a little premature, all the details have been finalised between Rodney, North Shore and eLGAR, and the reciprocal membership scheme will start on Monday 14th April.
