Reserve books,
Magazines, Journals, Newspapers, Microfilm, and Microfiche
are not loaned outside the library.
We no longer
charge overdue fines for books! However, if your book is overdue,
you will get a notice. If you lose a book you will be billed, but
we no longer charge overdue fines on books. Audio, video
and software are charged at one dollar per day. Late
reserve items are charged at 25 cents per hour.
In the last
week of classes of fall and spring terms, the library holds a pet
food drive for the Amherst County Animal Shelter. Donations
to the pet food drive will erase all overdue fines, but they will
not erase lost material fees.
Books may be
renewed for a second loan period only once and only if no one else
has requested the item in the meantime. Videos and CDs may only
be renewed for one day. You can renew your items online by going
to Your
Library Record. Enter your Social Security number and
you will have access to a list of all the items you have checked
out. Check boxes in the far left column to renew your material.
If you prefer, the Circulation staff can renew your material over
the phone at (434) 381-6138.
If you have a question about a fine, or if you think your fine is in error, please contact Mrs. Shirley Reid at (434) 381-6308 or by email at spreid at sbc dot edu. |
