Fines for items acquired through Interlibrary Loans may vary, according to the lending library’s rate. If a CD, audio book, or film is returned with items missing, the library will attempt to contact the borrower. Fines will continue to accrue on the item until all parts (i.e., liner notes, missing discs, etc.) are returned and then the item will be removed from the patron’s record.

3.  Once you have all the files uploaded, sign into the Print Release Station on the 2nd Floor of the Library, and you will see the files you had uploaded previously.  Click them to select, then click “Continue”
