Sue Robertson is the Guild Librarian and keeps the library at her home, at 11367 Deer Creek Lane, Nevada City. Call her at 530-348-0447 to make arrangements to visit the library or ask her to bring your selection to the next guild meeting.
You may check out three items out at one time, but only one video. All items have a one-month check-out period. Books and magazines may be renewed for one additional month, but videos must be returned after one month to allow others to check them out. Guild members are responsible for replacing lost items in kind, or with a replacement agreed upon with the current guild board.
In addition to books, magazines, and videos, the guild has two rag cutters, one for narrow fabric and one that cuts wider strips. There are four inkle looms, a kumihimo stand, and a copper pipe loom for knotted pile. If you wish to check out any of these items, you will need to leave a $25 deposit for each piece of equipment with the librarian. Your check will not be cashed if the item you have borrowed is returned. These items may be checked out for two months.
