A patron’s library account is blocked from use when the patron owes $12.00 in overdue fines.
When a patron’s fines have reached $50.00, an institutional block will be placed on the student account and future registration is blocked until the fines have been paid.
Diplomas are withheld until all library items are returned and all fines are paid.
