Do you charge late fees for overdue books?

For standard library materials, the IU Southeast Library does not charge late fees. However, if library materials are not returned or renewed within 30 days of their due dates, replacement costs of those items are billed to patrons. Most books and DVDs have a standard replacement cost of $60.00. For more expensive items, especially technology (laptops, tablets, cameras, etc.), patrons are billed the actual cost of the item at the time of purchase.

Library materials on Course Reserve accrue late fees at the following rates:

2-Hour Closed Reserve
$1.00 per hour every hour past the due date up to $25.00

1-Day, 4-Day, and 7-Day Reserve
$1.00 per day every day past the due date up to $25.00.

If you have accrued a replacement fine or course reserve late fee, you will receive a final notice in the mail, and then fees and replacement costs are transferred to your Bursar's account at Student Central. You may pay these bills online.
