Fines

Library fines occur when:

  • Books, reserve items, videos or other library materials are returned or renewed after the due date. 

  • Items overdue for 90 days or more are assumed to be lost and your account will be billed for the replacement cost plus a service charge.  At this time a hold is also placed on grades, transcripts and registration.

  • The University turns unpaid accounts over to a collection agency after 1 year.  An additional 30% collections charge will be added to all accounts handled by the Collection Agency.
