Changes to the TUG Lending Policy

There are a couple changes to our Lending Policy this fall that you will want to be VERY aware of...

1. All items from the Annex will now circulate for either 2 weeks or for term loan. This includes periodicals.

2. Reserve Fines have increased dramatically. Items on loan for 1 to 3 hours will be fined 5cents/minute, up to $100. Items on loan for 1 to 3 days* will be fined $20/day, up to $100.

More information about overdue fines can be found here.

*These new fines automatically apply to the DVDs in our Film Collection. DVD fines are still $1/day, this money does not go to the library, but towards buying more DVDs. Library staff will eventually clear these fines from your account and will transfer the actual fines to our Film Collection ledger. Beware, however, that this can only be done during weekdays and know that your account will be blocked once you have more than $30 in fines.
