Fine Rates
You will get an email 3 days before the loan period ends in order to renew or return the book.
Exceeding the loan period is charged per item and reminder:
- from the first day of overdue: €1
- at the end of the first week: €2 additionally
- at the end of the second week: €5 additionally (you will be blocked automatically, no circulation activities will be possible then.)
- at the end of the fourth week: €10 additionally
Example: If you return a book two weeks too late, you have to pay € 3.
The maximum fee per item will be € 18.
Fine rates can be paid cashless by cash card using the PIN at the cash machine next to the loan desk.
You will be automatically locked if your fees exceed € 10.
If you are reminded the third time for an overdue book, you will be locked, too.
No more circulation activities will be possible in both cases.
