Using the Library
Books may be borrowed. The borrower pays the postage both ways.
We will photocopy TCC articles for 5¢ a page, both front and back,
but not books due copyright problems.
Other ASCC Resources
While not officially part of the ASCC library, we have a slide set,
"The History of and Collecting of Checks," that is available to members
for showing at local club meetings.
