How to Avoid or Reduce Fines

  • KNOW the loan periods (PDF). Some items circulate for only a week or two. Examples:
    • Undergraduates and community borrowers: sound recordings and videos circulate for only a week (they can be renewed one time in your library account). Fines accrue daily!
    • Graduate students and faculty: videos circulate for only two weeks!
  • Check your date-due slips or check your account online to see what's due.
  • Renew materials online via your library account.
  • Library notices are sent to your UConn email account. Forward your UConn email if necessary.
  • Pay attention to recall notices (recall fines are high).
  • If an item is overdue, there's a small grace period. If you act right away, you may avoid the fine.
  • If an item is lost or damaged, report the problem immediately, before fines accrue. Consult a library supervisor regarding replacement options.
