Guidelines - Damaged Materials

It has always been the policy of CBC Library to charge patrons who damage library materials checked out to them. This is necessarily a subjective procedure, as 'damage' ranges from a few dog-eared pages to near-total destruction. We have recently settled on guidelines to help us insure consistency.

Minor Damage — This includes a few pencil marks, bent pages, and very slight water damage.
Note in student’s account. Verbal notification to the student the damage was noted on her/ his record.

Moderate Damage — This includes highlighting, ink marks, stains, water damage, torn pages or multiple pages with pencil mark.
$5.00 fee.

Major Damage — This includes damage to book’s cover and binding requiring extensive repairs.
$10.00 fee

Severe Damage — This includes torn, cut or missing pages, severe water damage, excessive ink marks, burns, teeth marks from animals, or any other extensive damage.
$15.00 processing fee, plus full replacement cost as determined by a Librarian.

Any damage to CDs, video tapes, or DVDs
$15.00 processing fee and full replacement cost.

Proctored Math Exams in the Library

Math Exams from Dr. Zhang will be kept in the white “Proctored Test” folder sitting upright next to the Circulation Supervior's incoming mailbox and when completed, the test can be placed inside the Privacy folder and Circulation Supervior will get it back to Dr. Zhang.

Only library staff can help the test-taker initially get started. A library staff or a library student employees can accept completed tests.
