IMPORTANT CHANGES to Library Circulating Policies

Effective June 2, 2014, we will be switching over to WMS and Circulation Services will be implementing these changes:
·   Student ID Required All library transactions will require a valid IVC or Saddleback student ID. No ID no checkouts.
·   Daily Overdue Fines We will no longer charge a flat fee for overdue fines; instead we will charge a daily fine.  Please see the chart below for rates:
Item Type         
Loan Period
Overdue Fines
Maximum Overdue Fine
Books (stacks)
3 weeks
$0.25 per day
$15.00
Audio Visual
3 weeks
$0.25 per day
$15.00
Textbook Reserves
Varies
$1.00 per hour
$50.00
Calculators, headsets, marker sets, other special reserve items
1 day
$1.00 per hour
$50.00

PLEASE NOTE: 
  • The above chart shows the textbook reserves will have a fine of $1 per hour instead of the current $5 flat fee.
  • When a patron's accruing fine(s) reaches $5.00, he/she will be blocked from additional checkouts until he/she have cleared the fines.
For Kaplan Students:
  • They must show their Kaplan ID with valid dates and complete a registration form at the Circulation Desk.
  • Kaplan students may only checkout one-item at a time and for one-week only.
If any questions, please feel free to contact Celina.
