<p style="margin-bottom:15px;">Overdue Fine: Overdue charges are 20 cents per day for each item. There is a 4 day grace period on most items except reserve items and study room keys. Fines are paid at the AskUs desk.<br /><br />
Lost Book Fees: A standard fee of $10, which includes processing costs, will be charged on books, single issues of journals and bound journals in addition to the full replacement cost of the item. Overdue fines may also be charged if the lost item is not reported to the library within the check-out period.<br /><br />
Unpaid library charges will result in being blocked from checking out materials from the UNMC Library, not being able to register for classes, request transcripts, access records on the student website, or request any type of enrollment verification. Holds will also be placed for activities on other NU campuses.</p>
