American Girl Lending Program FAQ How can the dolls be borrowed? Where can I borrow an American Girl Doll? American Girl Doll Kits are available for checkout at Bull Run Regional Library only. At this time, Holds cannot be placed on the dolls, and they cannot be sent to other library branches. Can I check out more than one doll at a time? No. The collection is not yet large enough for more than one doll to go home with a single family, or to a single household. We hope to increase the size of the collection to be able to allow more lending flexibility. What is the borrowing period? Three weeks (21 days), with no renewals Are there overdue fines for late returns? Yes, standard library fines apply for overdue returns. In addition, the full cost of the dolls will be charged for lost or damaged dolls. Where do I return my doll? Dolls must be returned to Bull Run Regional Library’s Youth Services Desk, or the Bull Run Regional Library’sCheckout/Circulation desk. Please do not return the dolls in the Book Returns.
