Can't
Find It?
If you look up
materials in the catalog that show as being "Available" but cannot
find them, come to the Circulation counter and ask for assistance. If
something is checked out, you can put a hold on it and we will notify you when it comes in.
Overdue Materials
If you receive a courtesy or overdue notice
for a library item, please return or renew it. If you are sure that the item
has been returned, or you have lost library materials, please call or come
in to the Library.
There are no fines for overdue materials. However, if any items are not
returned, you will receive a bill for replacement costs and processing fees
for each overdue item.
Lost
Materials and Charges
If you do
not renew or return materials, we will assume
the materials are lost. If you return the items you will not be charged
any fees or fines. If you do not return the items you will be charged a non-refundable $20.00
per item processing fee as well as the cost of replacing the materials.
Unresolved library charges may affect your ability to register for future
classes. If, after paying your fees, you find the items at a later date, the replacement charge
can be refunded, but not the $20.00 processing fee.
