Books may be borrowed by individuals affiliated with Connecticut museums, historical societies, and nonprofit art and history organizations only. Users may borrow up to (3) books at a time for up to 30 days at a time. Borrowers can renew their books (1) time via an e-mail request providing there are no other patrons waiting to borrow that same book. While we prefer that users pick up their books, if this is not possible the CT Humanities Council will ship your book(s) at no cost to you via FedEx. The borrower is responsible for all costs associated with returning the books to the HRC Library. Further questions? .
