University Holds

If your library fines reach or exceed $50.00 a hold will be placed on your library and university accounts. This hold prohibits use of the following library services:

  • charging and renewing items
  • obtaining Reserve items, Periodicals, and Media Resources

In addition, the following university services will be suspended:

  • registering for classes
  • receiving your diploma
  • obtaining university transcripts

As a courtesy, a letter of notification will be sent when the hold is placed on your account. To reinstate your accounts, you must go to the Circulation Desk, return all overdue items and pay your entire balance.
