Interlibrary Loan Overdue Fines Policy
Overdue Fines:
Starting February 1, 2005 the Interlibrary Loan Department will start charging fines for overdue Interlibrary Loan materials. Late Interlibrary Loan (ILL) books are assessed fines using the same policy the library uses for books loaned to TAMU-Commerce students.
1. Fines are $.25 per day per item to a maximum of $10.00 per item.
2. Faculty, retired faculty, adjunct faculty, and professional staff are not fined.
3. All students, GA's, TA's, and non-professional staff can accrue fines.
4. All ILL users are liable for damaged or lost books. Charges are set by the lending library.
5. Patrons who have overdue items and/or unpaid fines cannot borrow or renew material until the late material is returned and/or the fine is paid.
6. Unpaid fines, or lost or damaged items, may result in the suspension of ILL privileges.
7. Extreme cases may result in the suspension of library check-out privileges, withholding of grades and transcripts, blocking of registration, and a report on the problem to the Dean of Students.
