Library Use Only

3 hour loan. Items may not be taken out of the library.

Borrowers are limited to checking out two items at a time from the Reserves collection.

The fine for overdue material is $1.00 per HOUR for Library Use Only Reserve items and $1.00 per DAY for Open Reserve items.

Unpaid fines for overdue items will result in a suspension of borrowing privileges.

An item overdue for five days will be considered lost. The borrower will be billed for the average cost of an item plus a processing charge. Borrowing privileges are automatically suspended and sanctions will be applied by the registrar until the bill for the lost item(s) is settled. If an item is found and returned at a later time, a refund will be made for the price of the item with an overdue fine deducted.
