You may pay online for all overdue book and equipment fines, as well as fees for 3D and poster printing. We are unable to accept payments in person at the library.
Replacement books – Library books that are 60 days overdue are considered lost. Students will be billed a $75 flat fee ($50 replacement + $25 processing) for each lost item. These fees will be transferred to the Bursar’s Office and reflected on students’ accounts. Students’ fees for replacement books must be paid through the Bursar’s office.
Once fees have been transferred to the Bursar's Office, they can no longer be refunded by the Library.

Yes. Depending on the item, you may be able to provide a replacement copy in lieu of the $50 replacement fee (note: you will still need to pay the $25 processing fee, even with a replacement). All replacement requests will be reviewed by the Library’s Collection Development & Management Department.
It normally takes us a complete business day to apply the payment and clear a hold after a library fine is paid. If you need us to clear the hold so you can register or print a transcript, please print the email receipt you receive after you pay the fine. Please bring the receipt to the Library Circulation Desk and we will attempt to clear the hold, subject to policies and procedures in the Bursar's Office.
