Tips

• Return material on time to the library from which it is checked out.
• Ask any circulation desk attendant to print:
  * a list of items which you have checked out with their due dates
  * a list of library fines and fees which you owe
• Pay bills promptly to avoid accumulating fees.
  * Pay fines, by check only, at any library.
     (The Library Information Office (LIO), 201 Butler Library only accepts credit cards and checks.

  * Pay fees for lost items at the LIO (for Barnard or Health Science Library materials at the 
     respective Circulation Desks)
• Ask for a receipt when returning books.
• Respond to courtesy renewal notices promptly.
