- Unlimited Use:
With a single annual payment determined by the number of households
in the parish and/or mission parish (see Fee Schedule), a parish
has unlimited use of all audio-video resources (audio cassettes,
CD ROMs, video cassettes) in the Resource Center. There will not
be any additional costs for postage or previewing. Parishes may include
their mission parish(es) on the Unlimited Use Option. The total number
of households must include those of the mission parish(es) as well.
2. Rental For Each Resource:
If a parish chooses not to utilize the Unlimited Use Option, each audio-video
resource used will be subject to a rental fee with additional shipping costs.
Payment is due 30 days after use of the resource.
|
| User Liability |
| |
The user is responsible for the programs during the entire period of
rental and return shipment. Any damage to the programs due to machine malfunction
or careless handling is the user's liability. The same holds true for loss
and damage sustained during return shipping. In these cases, the user will
be subject to additional replacement costs. |
| Previewing |
| |
Audio-visual resources may be previewed at no cost to parishes or institutions
utilizing the Unlimited Use Option. For parishes or institutions not on
the Unlimited Use Option, there is a fee for previewing.
