What kind of fees should I be aware of?

APL does not charge overdue fines for items returned or renewed past the due date, however, customers should still return materials upon their due date. 

Lost or Damaged Material Fee

• The account is billed the cost of any item lost or damaged, as determined by the Library. Any item 28 days overdue is assumed lost.

Devices

• The cost of a lost or damaged laptop will also include a $150 non-refundable service charge.

Refunds for Lost Fees

• Refunds are only eligible for up to 1 year from the billed date for LOST items paid for in full. To receive a refund, the Item and a receipt showing payment in full must be presented.

Expired Hold Fee

• Holds not picked up or not canceled within the 10-calendar day hold period will be subject to a $1.00 fee per item.

Delinquent Accounts

• Accounts with unreturned material and/or unpaid fees totaling $25 or more that are 56 days past due will be submitted to Unique Management Services and a service charge of $10 will be added to the balance. All fees must be paid for the card to be used again.
