We fine $5 for first night overdue; $1/day for next 6. On day 7, automatically billed for default replacement cost ($200) + $10 processing. When returned after that point, the $200 goes away and they owe $20 ($10 fee + $10 fine). The $200 charge blocks library account. (Fines apply only to students, faculty aren't charged).

A quick review of other libraries suggests that the typical rate for reserve items is $1 per hour four hourly reserve and $1 per day for daily reserve. Is that the case at your institution? If not, what are your rates? Thanks! -lisa H.
