How to check out a Video Game.

Youth and Parent Services has a new system for checking-out video games:
  • You must check out your video game at our self-check station. Please see a librarian if you are new at this and have any questions.
  • Present your receipt to the Youth and Parent Services Reference Desk and a Librarian will retrieve your game for you.
  • Games are returned downstairs just like usual.
That's it! Easy as snagging a 'Power-Up!'
