To prevent damage and a fine charge, please do not force items into the slots or leave books, etc. outside of the returns. Unless noted on the item, all Belvedere-Tiburon item may be returned at other MARINet libraries (e.g. Mill Valley, San Rafael, Novato, etc.).

It is okay to return DVDs in the outside book drops (Some cases still have stickers that say this is not permitted).
