At Decker Library, we strive to make borrowing materials as convenient as possible. Here's what you need to know about returning items and our policy on lost or damaged materials.
Returning Items After Hours:
Even if the library is closed, you can still return items. Simply use the drop box located at the main entrance of the library (first floor, Bunting Center).
Decker Items: Lost or Damaged Materials Policy
At Decker Library, we want to make borrowing as easy as possible. While we don't charge fines for overdue materials, it's important to return items on time. Here's what you need to know:
- If an item is not returned within one month past its due date, it will be considered lost.
- In the case of a lost item, the borrower will be charged the full replacement cost, along with a $25.00 processing fee per item.
- If you have lost or damaged materials, you have the option to provide a new copy in lieu of paying the replacement cost.
We appreciate your cooperation in returning materials promptly, so they can be enjoyed by others in the MICA community.
Interlibrary Loan Fines and Fees:
When borrowing materials from other libraries through interlibrary loans, different rules may apply.
- Any fines or fees levied by the borrowing library will be passed on to the user.
