Lost & Damaged Materials

2.6.8 Lost/Damaged Materials.

Patrons are responsible for reimbursement for any damage to materials not resulting from

normal use.

Patrons are responsible for reimbursement of any lost materials.

When items are missing from a set, the cost for replacing the complete set will be assessed

if the library is unable to replace the particular lost item individually.

Patrons will be charged the cost of the specific lost/damaged item, as recorded in the library's

computer system database.

Materials damaged by “acts of God” may be forgiven. Users will provide to circulation staff proof of fire, accident, or other natural disasters. Consideration will be made on a case-by-case basis.
