Overdue Materials and Fines

http://kb.library.bethel.edu/articles/766/

Library users with overdue materials are sent 3 notices via automatic email. A final billing notice is sent by automatic email to your Bethel email address. If materials are not returned after this billing notice, they are then BILLED with an attached fine.

Books, Videos, Music

For items that are not returned or are lost, the fines are a minimum of $65 for each book, cd, or audio book, and are a minimum of $115 for each video or DVD.

Reference

Fines are assessed daily at $1 per day. Reference fines will not be waived.

Reserves

Fines are assessed hourly at $.25 per hour. Reserve fines will not be waived. Items that are lost or not returned will be billed to the user's Bethel account through the Business Office at the rates listed above under "Books, Videos, Music."

Laptops/Other Equipment

Laptops have a 3 hour maximum check out period. They are fined $20 per hour after the 3 hour period has expired. The replacement fee for a lost or damaged laptop is up to $2,400. An additional processing fee may be charged as well. All charges that are accrued as a result of violations of these policies and procedures will be sent to the University Business Office and will prevent a student from registering for classes for the next term if not paid.

Billed in Error

If you have been billed for an item that you returned, please contact the Circulation Desk at x6222.

Revoking Borrowing Privileges

Borrowing privileges may be revoked if there are substantial unpaid or
