Borrowers are responsible for renewing or returning library material on time. The table below lists our standard loan periods as well as overdue fines for all materials that we loan.

Please note: Overdue notices are sent as a courtesy. Failing to receive an overdue notice does not absolve a borrower from responsibility should they receive a bill or fine. For normal loans an overdue notice is sent 7 days past the due date, 21 days past the due date, and again 28 days past the due date.

On normal loans the borrower is billed when an item (i.e. a book, CD, score, videotape, DVD, headphones or key) becomes 35 days overdue. When any item except headphones is not returned after 35 days, the library will assess an Overdue Processing fee of $15.00 and a Replacement fee of $35.00 for a total Lost Item fee of $50.00. The Replacement fee for headphones is $25.00 and the total Lost Headphone fee is $40.00.

Charges for non-returned or lost items will appear on the student’s finance record 35 days past the due date. Upon the request of a student, bill and fine amounts may be transferred to the Student Finance office for collection when fees exceed $15. Borrowers with overdue fees of $5.00 or more will not be allowed to checkout or renew books. We encourage borrowers to return or renew materials on time. The $5.00 fine limit is to keep fines from increasing to exorbitant amounts. Borrowers with excessive overdue material and/or large outstanding bill/fine balances may be blocked from further use of the library.

If you have questions about the library's overdue policies, please contact Evonne Lawrence, Circulation Coordinator, at 864-7165 or ekelly@loyno.edu.
