Circulation

Reference books circulate overnight. Please return the book/s before first period the morning after you have checked it out.

Overdues

Overdue fines are not charged. However, there may be other faculty or students in need of the book that is due.

If books are not returned by the end of the trimester, the library will assume the book is lost and charge you the replacement cost of the book. Access to your grades/transcript will be blocked until AHA's business office is fully reimbursed for the outstanding book.

Please see the library staff if you question any notice you have received.

There are no limits to the books you have checked out at any given time, unless there are reserves for those titles.
