What are the fines for overdue materials?

Effective 2022, GRRL does not charge overdue fines on materials, although if items are not returned within 45 days of going overdue they will considered lost and charges assessed.

Replacement costs will be applied for lost items and those damaged beyond repair. In order to avoid having items automatically set to lost, they must be returned within 45 days of the due date. You may receive a bill for lost items. If lost items are returned in good condition, replacement costs may be removed.
