Paying Library Fines and Charges

If you fail to return items by the due date:

  • You may not be able to borrow items from any of the Libraries until the loan has been discharged from your record.

  • You may be liable for fines up to $20 per item as well as replacement costs for unreturned items. Fines are imposed immediately on student and guest borrowers for the late return of any items. There are different fine rates for different categories of materials.
