Overdue Items & Fines
The library will send you a 1st and 2nd notice via email. We will mail you a 3rd notice, if necessary. Failure to receive these notices in no way relieves the borrower of his/her obligation to return the item(s) by the due date. You are responsible for knowing when the items you have checked out are due. You may renew online at Your library account (on the library homepage). You may also renew materials over the phone (ext. 1313), or in person at the Circulation Desk.
Overdue fines may be paid using your Hillcard, cash or by check. All overdue fines must be paid prior to registration for the next semester.
