What If I Don't Return My Book?

When you check out something from the library, we will tell you when it is due back.  If you don't return the item within 30 days of the due date, we will put a hold on your student account.  This means that you will not be able to:

  • Register for classes
  • See your grades
  • Send your transcript to employers or other colleges

We will contact you before we put a hold on your account to give you a chance to return the item.  The hold will be removed as soon as you return the item or pay for a replacement.
