Notices are sent via email to Bates, Colby, and Bowdoin students, faculty, and staff. These notices are sent as courtesy reminders. If possible, patrons are encouraged to track their own due dates using the view your patron record option on the web. The library is not responsible for the non-receipt of overdue notices. Notices are sent via U.S. Mail for all other patrons.
All patrons are responsible for informing the library of address changes.
Change of address forms are available from the campus Post Office. Replacement Costs Patrons are liable for the price of replacing any material that is lost or damaged, as well as the processing and non-refundable billing fees. Patrons may replace a lost item with an acceptable duplicate, but are still responsible for the processing and billing fees and any accumulated fines. Replacement charges are summarized below. If a student returns an item after the fines and fees have been transferred to the Business Office, a credit for the amount of the replacement and processing fees will be issued.
