For more information about self-renewal, please ask at the Circulation Desk. Materials are subject to recall by faculty immediately and by other patrons after 2 weeks. | |
| Library Fines | |
| Fines are imposed on overdue material as an incentive to return material when due. Patrons are encouraged to renew material and avoid using the grace period or paying fines. | |
| • Three week material: 4 day grace period, then $.20 per day • One week material: 4 day grace period, then $.20 per day • Three day material: 1 day grace period, then $1 per day |

| Reserve materials have a much shorter grace period and fines accrue more quickly than for the materials listed above. Additional details on fines and charges should be requested by calling the Circulation Desk. Blocks are placed on the records of those with excessive fines. All charges must be satisfied before items can again be checked out. | |
