NLS Magazines on Cartridge extends loan period

By Alicia Waters | February 3, 2015

According to NLS (National Library Services), the talking magazines on blue cartridges are now loaned for  a longer time. The allotted reading time for weekly cartridges (those containing weekly magazines only) has increased from one week to three weeks. The reading time for monthly cartridges (those containing monthly and weekly magazines) has increased from four weeks to seven weeks. This reading time does not include the two weeks of “travel time” (one week to get from the producer to the subscriber and then another week to get from the subscriber back to the producer.)

With travel time, weekly magazine cartridges have a total loan period of five weeks from delivery to return. Monthly magazine cartridges have a total of nine weeks from delivery to return.

If you have any questions about the loan period of your subscriptions, please contact Talking Books Plus at olis.tbplus@olis.ri.gov or call 401-574-9310 .
