Holds
If an item is currently checked out or not on the shelves, patrons should go to the circulation desk to request that a hold be placed on the item.
Fines
The following fines are assessed to encourage prompt return of library materials. Fines accumulate until the item is returned, renewed or declared lost.

$30 non-refundable processing fee per item.
Course reserves
Each semester, the library maintains a course reserve collection, as requested by professors. This collection consists of electronic reserves and traditional reserves.
Traditional reserve items include hard copies of materials. These materials are located behind the library circulation desk and circulate for a limited time. Reserve listings can be accessed from the
online catalog.
Reserve materials must be returned to the circulation desk.
Electronic reserves are available in the
online catalog in PDF format. To access these articles, you will need
Adobe Acrobat Reader.
If you need assistance with the reserve collection, please contact the library circulation desk at (920) 403-3466 or
circ@snc.edu. |
