If an item is not returned within 14 days after the final overdue notice, you will be billed for the cost of a replacement and a library hold will be placed on your student account. If a lost item is then found and returned, your bill will be waived and the hold removed. You will not be able to register for classes, receive grades, or acquire transcripts until the bill is paid and the library hold is cleared. Please contact the library if you have questions about a bill, library hold, or to have a hold removed.

If you know the item is lost, contact the library to coordinate payment or purchase. Do not purchase a replacement copy unless you have been instructed to do so by library staff.

Contact hartness@vsc.edu or 1-800-431-0025 with any questions.
