Library Charges Appeal Form
To request the cancellation or reduction of a library charge, first discuss the charge with a circulation desk supervisor in the unit(s) owning the material for which charges are assessed. If resolution fails you may file an official appeal.
Official Appeals are only accepted for charges related to lost or damaged items. Overdue fines cannot be appealed. Appeals must be filed within one semester from the end of the semester in which the charges were assessed.
Appeals based solely on inability to pay and/or disagreement with the assessment structure will not be accepted. Address such disagreement to the Head of Branch and Borrower Services.
If an appeal is accepted for consideration, the amount under appeal will not be subject to financial or library bars pending review of the appeal. Library records used in reaching a decision are open to appellants upon request.
All appeals decisions are final.
