Overdue fines apply to reserve materials at the rate of $.25 per hour. For all items on reserve, a first email notice will be sent out 1 hour after the item becomes overdue. A second notice will be sent out after the next 24 hours, and the final notice 24 hours after that. Lastly, the billing notice will be sent out 24 hours after the final notice. If an overdue item generates a billing notice, and the material is returned after this time, a $5 fine will remain on the patron\u2019s account and is not refundable. Reserve items not returned will generate a $65 charge.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"holds\">Holds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Holds may not be placed on Reserve material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"renewals\">Renewals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reserve items may be renewed only if there are other copies <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">of the title<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> available and for the same checkout period.
