| OVERDUE
FINES |
|||
| Fines and bills are the responsibility of the borrower regardless of being away from campus for breaks between semesters, vacations, exams, illness, car troubles, sabbatical leaves, unread MSU e-mail, late or never-received reminder notices, etc. Fine amounts are not calculated until after material is returned. Material returned after closing is not considered returned until the next day the library is open. | |||
| When a borrower owes $3 or more, library privileges are suspended without notice until account is paid in full. Payment may be made by mail (see address at end of this document) or at the Main Library Circulation Desk. | |||
| The MSU Libraries have a "no fines" policy for most material. Fines are charged for overdue recalled items and reserve material, software, CDs, records, videodiscs, special permission checkouts, and laptops. | |||
| • Overdue fines for reserve material are sixty cents (60¢) per item per hour, 24 hours per day, from the time due until the time returned, with no grace period ($14.40 per day). | |||
| • Overdue fines for recalled items, software, CDs, records, videos, and special permission checkouts are $1 per day from the due date until the day returned, with no grace period. | |||
| • Overdue fines for laptop computers are $6 per hour, 24 hours per day, from the time due until the time returned, with no grace period ($144.00 per day). | |||
