*Replacement fees apply if items are lost, damaged, or not returned within the time allowed.
Items are considered lost after a set number of days overdue:
Once an item is marked lost, your account will be billed the replacement fee and processing charge. If the item is returned or renewed after being billed, the replacement fee may be waived or reduced, but overdue fines will still apply, up to the maximum listed. The $25 processing fee remains on your account.
If the item is returned more than 6 months after being marked lost, no fee will be waived and no refunds will be issued.
For questions about fines or billing, please email: lib-circ@mst.edu
The library reserves the right to forward unpaid invoices to the university's cashier's office, which may impact your ability to register for classes or graduate.
