Fort Campbell, KY – The R.F. Sink Library offers many great programs and services for Soldiers, Families, Retirees, and Civilians. Recently the library has updated their policies. The following information reflects these policies and information on the programs and services offered at the R.F. Sink Library:

All material is due in 28 days except DVDs and VHS. DVDs and VHS are due in 14 days.
Items may be renewed twice that are not reserved for other patrons by phone or in person for an additional 28 days. Patrons may renew reserved items once, for an additional 14 days.
Overdue Policy
Borrowing privileges shall be suspended once a patron has an item for 30 days past its due date until the material is returned. Lost or damaged material must be replaced by the patron (sponsor) with the same item, if available. If the item is not available, a similar item in content and value must be provided. All replacement material must be brand new.

Reserved material such as books, DVDs and more may be placed on any circulating item. Patrons will be notified by phone when their reserves become available. The requested item will be held for seven days from the date of notification.
Interlibrary Loans
Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is defined as a transaction in which library materials or photocopies of materials are made available by one library to another upon request. This process can take up to three weeks. Please be advised that occasionally we are unable to fill ILL requests due to unavailability.
