* It is your responsibility to check your Otterbein e-mail and mail for overdue and billing notices.

* Overdue notices are sent 1 day and 3 weeks after items are due. If an item is 30 days overdue, a maximum fine of $15 will be charged for materials owned by Otterbein's Library; this excludes 24 hour/loan equipment, which might incur a higher fee. A maximum fine of $50 will be charged for any OhioLink item that is 30 days overdue.

 

* After 30 days, a $115 replacement fee is charged for any item owned by Otterbein's Library, and $125 for any OhioLink item. The Library has the right to charge more as needed for items such as laptop computers depending on their cost.

 

* Any unpaid fines that are sent to the Business Office will incur an additional $5 processing fee.
