| Lost or Damaged Materials |
When cardholders lose or damage materials they have borrowed from, or used within the library, they will be responsible for paying applicable charges. The cost will be based on the price recorded at the time the library acquired the item.
Refunds for lost materials will be given if the materials are found within 2 months of the payment. The refund will reflect the cost of the item minus the maximum fine of the item. Refunds are not given for items to multiple audiocassette or compact disc sets. |
