MID-CITIES STAMP CLUB – LIBRARY COLLECTION
The library of the Mid-Cities Stamp Club is housed in the club’s cabinets in the Art Room at the Bob Duncan Community Center in Arlington, Texas.
To borrow a volume: (1) remove the “title” card and “date due” card from the pocket in the front of the desired book; (2) in the space provided on the “title” card, write your name and the date the book will be due [next meeting date] and place the card in the metal box; (3) finally, write the date due [next meeting date] on the “date due” card and reinsert the card in the book’s front pocket.
Books may be checked out either at Arlington or Irving meetings, but books must be brought by the librarian to the latter. To borrow a book at an Irving meeting, make a request for the desired volume(s) at least two weeks in advance of the meeting date by calling librarian Bill Bradshaw at (817) 457-1947.
Volumes may be checked out between meetings, a period of approximately one month. For each period or portion thereof books are kept beyond the due date, the fine will be $5.00 for each current Scott catalogue and $1.00 for any other books. If a book is not turned at the conclusion of the second period after the due date, the borrower will be liable for the entire cost of the volume.
