Loan-A-Rod

Enjoy a Summer of Fun and Fishing with the Lauri Ann West Memorial Library or its Sharpsburg Branch

The Loan-A-Rod Program is perfect for:

Beginners             Vacations             Camp Outs             Boating Trips

                 Children                Retirees                  Families

  • Check out a fishing rod and fully-stocked tackle box for three weeks!  Rods and tackle boxes can be circulated to patrons 16 years of age or older with a library card.  Up to 3 fishing rods and 3 tackle boxes may be checked out per household.  After three weeks, a fine of $0.25 per day per item will be charged until the fishing materials are returned.  There will be a replacement fee of $10.00 each, charged for any lost fishing rods and/or tackle boxes.  Rods and tackle boxes cannot be renewed.
  • All fishing rods and tackle boxes that are circulated from the Lauri Ann West Memorial Library or the Sharpsburg Branch must be returned to that Library's circulation desk during the regular hours of operation.
  • All patrons must sign a waiver before they borrow any fishing equipment.  Patrons under the age of 18 must have their waiver signed by a parent or gaurdian.
  • Patrons checking out fishing materials will have everything necessary to go fishing except live bait and a fishing license (anyone 16 or older must have a license to fish in Pennsylvania).  Please note: the contents of the tackle boxes will vary on occasion.
  • Enjoy your fishing experience, and please treat the equipment as you would something that you purchased.  Try to return it to the library in the same condition that it was in when you checked it out.  Fishing poles must be returned clean, without hooks, bait or other matter or debris attached.
  • Lauri Ann West Memorial Library and the Sharpsburg Branch of the Lauri Ann West Memorial Library accept no responsibility or liability for any injuries incurred by anyone using the fishing equipment made available under the Loan-A-Rod Program.

Please call the Library at (412) 828-9520, extension 13 or (412) 781-0783, if additional information is needed on the Loan-A-Rod Program.
