| Overdue Books |
| It is the responsibility of borrowers from all categories to be aware of the due date of each book borrowed. Bookmarks that indicate the due date are available at the check-out counter. When a book is overdue by 10 days, the borrower will receive a bill for $100 which includes the book’s replacement cost and a billing fee of $10. If the book is returned, the replacement cost is refunded but the billing fee remains. |
