Semester 2, 2012 trial: no demerits
As a trial, during Semester 2 2012, the Library will no longer apply demerit points to overdue items. Existing demerit points are being removed where possible and suspensions have been lifted.
With the removal of the demerit point system we are tightening up our replacement invoice processes to target late return of items that impact and disadvantage other library users.
Very overdue items will be considered lost and you will be invoiced for the replacement cost, including a non – refundable $30 handling fee.
High use items, (Reserve and recalled items) not returned will be invoiced very quickly. In addition, if you do not return Reserve items promptly, your borrowing will be blocked for one week.
Overdue Reserve items will be invoiced after three days.
Overdue Recalled items will be invoiced within one to two weeks.
We will continue to send courtesy and overdue notices. Please continue to renew your loans on receipt of these notifications.
Please send any feedback to margaret.colmer@adelaide.edu.au
