Parenting Resource Collection FAQs

  • General Questions

    Community members who hold an SDG Library membership may access these resources by logging into their Library account and conducting a catalogue keyword search using “UCDSB Parenting” or “UCDSB Addictive Behaviour”. Once the desired title has been chosen, patrons may select the item and place a hold. Materials may be requested for delivery to any of the Library’s fifteen (15) branch locations within the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas, and Glengarry.

    Individuals residing within the geographic boundaries of the UCDSB, who are not members of the SDG Library, may obtain these materials through the interlibrary loan (ILL) service. To do so, they should first search the SDG Library’s catalogue, take a note of the title and author of the desired book and then contact their Library to request the book through the Interlibrary Loan service.

    Library items may be returned to any SDG Library branch.  We prefer that patrons return Interlibrary Loan items to the branch it was borrowed from.  Book drops are open 24/7.

    As of June 25, 2024 the SDG Library is "Fines Fee".  This means SDG Library patrons are no longer charged overdue fines for items that are returned after the original due date.  After 21 days of being overdue, items will be declared "Lost”, and your Library account will be charged with the replacement cost of the item as well as a processing fee ($5).  If lost items are returned within six months, in good condition, and can be added back into the collection, the replacement charges will be waived. The processing fee ($5) will remain on your account.

    Items borrowed through the Interlibrary Loan service may charge fees or fines based on the lending Library's policies and procedures.
