Returns

Materials should be returned on or before the due date. Materials may be returned directly to the Library or to our drop box located outside the library front entrance.

The drop box is cleared only once per week therefore time sensitive returns should be taken directly into the Library.


Overdue Items

Keeping items past the due date will result in suspension of borrowing privileges and being billed for the cost of replacement. In addition, a $5.00 Labor Charge--for each late item--is added. This Labor Charge cannot be waived even if the item is subsequently returned. Questions about overdue items may be directed to the Circulation staff at (913) 588-7166 or by email: dykesref@kumc.edu
