Overdue, Fines and
Fees
As a courtesy, no fines are
charged for overdue items, but further borrowing will not be permitted
until items are returned.
A standard fee of $70.00 (average
item price of $60.00 plus $10.00 for processing) will be charged for lost item.
The Library, however, retains the right to determine the value of any lost item. No refunds will be
given for items returned after payment has been made. Costs will be assessed for
damage to library materials.
Faculty/Staff
Borrowing privileges will
be suspended until overdue materials are returned, or the Library obligation is paid.
Students
Unpaid library obligations
will be referred to the Business Office, which may result in
the inability to register
for classes, the withholding of transcripts and/or diplomas, and referral to a collection
agency.
