The library will stop charging fines for overdue books and materials that are returned late as well as clear any outstanding overdue balances. The library encourages students to return items responsibly and timely so others may use those shared resources. Items not returned within their due date will be flagged and reminder notices will be sent via email. Items not returned at the end of the semester will be considered lost, and a replacement fee will be charged. While the library eliminated overdue fines, students are still responsible for fees associated with replacing lost or damaged books and other materials they check out.More about library checkout, fines, and fees policies: https://libraryguides.laspositascollege.edu/students/checkingoutmaterialsPlease contact the library with any questions about your account.LPC Library Check-Out Desk: 925.424.1151https://libanswers.laspositascollege.edu/...
