Library Account & Policies

Overdue notices are generated and mailed out daily. An overdue notice is sent to the patron requesting the return of overdue items. Items which are not returned after 7 days will automatically be listed as lost and the replacement charge(s), including a non-refundable $25.00 processing fee, will be placed on the borrower's account. Please direct further billing inquiries to the Patron Services Desk.

The current or original price of an item is charged to replace a lost or damaged item. If a price is not available, then a replacement cost of $25.00 is charge. A non-refundable $25.00 processing fee is also charged for each item replaced. A comparable replacement copy, acceptable to the Library may be substituted for the lost item. If a replacement copy is accepted, the processing fee is still in effect.

Refunds are made available for:

• Item(s) declared lost and subsequently paid for, then later located on library shelves within a year.

**A service charge of $25 will apply for all returned checks.** Non-payment of fees or improper return of materials will result in suspended library privileges for community borrowers. Students, faculty, and staff will have an administrative hold placed on their academic record, and their library checkout privileges will be suspended.
