A hold can only be placed on an item that is checked out, not items on reserve, room use only items, or items that are available on the shelf. After an item has been in circulation for two weeks, it may be recalled at the request of another patron. The recall notice will allow one week for the return of an item to the library. Items needed for course reserve will be recalled immediately. Place a request for a recall at the Circulation Desk.
All patrons are responsible for replacement fees for lost or nonreturned items.
Refunds for materials returned to the library after replacement charges have been paid are given only if the item has not been replaced or withdrawn from the collection. Blocks Unpaid fines or an excessive number of overdues will result in a loss of borrowing privileges. Unresolved charges will be turned over to the Revenue Office for collection resulting in a block on future class registrations and transcript requests. If you are not a student or employee of Mansfield University, you can still borrow materials from the library.
