Why do I have a fine on my account?
Answer
You may receive a fine if you have returned a laptop late or if you did not plug the laptop in. This incurs a £1 fine per hour after the return time.
You may also receive a fine if a book on your account is overdue. The library operates an automatic renewal system to help you avoid fines but, to help further, please check your University email account regularly for notices from the library.
Library books will automatically renew unless:
- They have reached their maximum loan period (one calendar year if limits below do not apply).
- Another user has requested them.
- Your account is blocked due to library fines, overdue items, or financial blocks.
- Your account has expired, or will expire before the next renewal date.
Late returns of books incur a £1 fine per item, per day.
