Policy changes May 1st, 2023

Heads up! We are updating a few of our policies May 1st to help better serve our patrons. Changes include:

  • Overdue fines for regular loans will be eliminated. However, overdue fines will continue to be charged for laptops, reserve items, and recalled items. The elimination of overdue fines for regular loans will apply to Archer, Campion, Luther, and TPC Libraries. First Nations University Libraries will continue with their existing overdue fine policies.
  • Reserve items are declared lost three days after their due date. After reserve items have been declared lost, the patron is responsible for payment of their associated lost fees.
  • After 60 days, outstanding Archer Library lost charges on patron accounts will be transferred to Financial Services for collection. Lost items may be returned for refund of their lost fees prior to their transfer to Financial Services. However, lost fees will not be refunded after they have transferred to Financial Services.
  • Laptop loans are being extended from 3 days to 5 days. On the 5th borrowing day, laptops are due by 6:00 pm (extended from the previous due time of 12 noon.)
