NORWELD has been working with a number of our regional libraries to develop Drupal web sites that will make it easier for libraries to maintain their content, while implementing more Library/Web 2.0 capabilities than ever before. NORWELD has developed a Drupal training workshop, to facilitate site transition and updating. New Workshops TBD

Materials Collection Policies
Items in the Materials Collection are available to NORWELD members for loan through our electronic request system.
Bi-Folkal Kits/Mini-Kits/Slideas
- Kits must be requested through a NORWELD member library. NORWELD will ship the kit to your library via U.S. Cargo or UPS in advance of your scheduled show date. The kit is due back at the NORWELD office one week after your show date. The date due will be marked on each kit loaned and renewals are discouraged.
- Only one kit may be borrowed by an organization at one time.
- Each library should check each kit as it is received against the enclosed checklist. Check the kit again when it is returned. Your library will be held responsible for the cost of any damaged or missing items.
- A kit may be requested up to one year in advance. Kits will be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.
- Each kit should be returned in its original shipping container via U.S. Cargo or UPS.
- Make certain the Report of Use form in the kit is completed by your patron or your library before returning the kit.
Book Discussion Collection
- Over 150 titles are available from NORWELD. To reserve a title, please use the online request system.
- NORWELD member libraries may also borrow from NEO. Click here for a listing of the NEO holdings. To reserve a set, contact Bonnie Tyler at NEO 330-847-7744, ext 10 or Tylerbo@neo-rls.org
- Except for the most recent sets, NEO libraries may borrow items from the NORWELD collection.
- If a library is unable to return all books in a set at the same time, the librarian will send a note with the books stating which copies are missing. Any missing books should be returned as soon as possible.
- A member library will pay the cost of replacing a lost or damaged book plus a $3.00 processing fee. NORWELD will bill the library.
