Lost Item Replacement Policy
This policy and billing cycle is effective as of August 17th, 2009
To ensure that items owned by the Libraries are available to patrons, the Smathers Libraries will attempt to quickly replace each item lost by patrons with an exact copy, an updated edition of the title, or a similar title. The libraries no longer refund replacement costs for items that are returned after replacement copies are ordered. Overdue fines related to lost items are not increasing and are not refundable if the book is subsequently returned. Specific fines and fees are delineated at http://www.uflib.ufl.edu/ps/Circ/fines.html.
The full lost item replacement policy is available at the following page: http://www.uflib.ufl.edu/ps/Circ/lost.htm
