Summer Reserve Items Are Due This Week

This ensures that the library is able to update all firmware, software, and keep collections accurate. This means that all library laptops, calculators, and textbooks are due on or before Thursday, August 28, 2025.

Students who do not return library laptops, calculators, and textbooks on or before the due date may have a hold placed on their student account and may be blocked from registering for Fall Term. In addition, they may be referred to a collection agency and charged a non-refundable fee of up to $250.

Reminder:

Laptops and calculators CANNOT be placed in the book drop, they must be returned to the circulation desk during regular library hours. Any technology placed in the book drop will get damaged by the heat, and patrons will be charged for these damages.
