Overdue Books and Fines |
Daily fines for Pius Library overdue books are charged as follows:
| General collection materials: |
10 cents per day |
Course Reserve materials
& Study Room keys: |
25 cents per hour |
A book is stamped with the due date at check-out. The SLU Catalog
View Your Circulation Record
provides the due date of all books on loan to each borrower.
Overdue notices for Pius Library books are sent when books
are 5 and 15 days overdue. After 30 days, overdue books are
considered lost, and the borrowing patron will be billed a lost book
fee of $115 plus a non-refundable $5 billing/processing fine.
Media, Curriculum, and Reserve items are subject to separate overdue and billing policies.
Overdue notices for MOBIUS loaned books are sent when books are 5 and
30 days overdue. After 45 days, overdue books are considered
lost and the borrowing patron will be billed a lost book fee of $100.00
plus a non-refundable $20.00 billing/processing fine.
Failure to receive a notice does not exempt a borrower from the responsibility
to return books on time and is not grounds for the cancellation of
fines.
Billed books and fine totals exceeding $50.00 will result in suspension of
borrowing privileges.
