Terms
What this is
A neighbourhood library. Members lend each other books they own. The site only keeps the record: who offers what, who asked, who agreed, and who holds a book right now.
Between neighbours
Every loan is a direct agreement between two members. The site is not a party to it, does not guarantee a book comes back, and takes no responsibility for loss, damage or delay. If a book is lost or damaged, settle it between you. Stewards can help; they do not rule.
No money
No fees, no deposits, no fines. Asking for payment for a loan breaks these terms.
What we keep
Your email, a display name, a rough area (about 300 m — never an address), the books you list, and the messages on each loan. Messages are deleted 90 days after a loan closes. You can ask for your account to be deleted at any time; past loans are kept without your name.
Conduct
Be fair. No contacting members outside a loan. Stewards can suspend an account that breaks this.
Changes
These terms may change before the library opens to more communities. A material change goes out by email.
