| Borrowing & Renewals |
| Individuals
with a current St. Edward's University ID, courtsey borrower card, or
TexShare card are eligible to borrow library materials. Loan periods
and renewal options vary according to borrower status and type of
material (see table below). |
|
With your SEU login and password, you may access your library account and renew your own books through the My Account
option on the library home page. The number of renewals that are
permitted depends on your borrower type (see the table below). Renewals
are not permitted if a book is overdue or has been placed on hold. To
request renewal of Interlibrary Loan (ILL) materials, please contact the ILL
department in advance of the due date at (512) 448-8738 or illhelp@stdwards.edu. |

| Fines & Replacement Charges |
Overdue fines and other charges may be assessed for library materials not returned on time (see chart below).
SEU borrowers may
pay library fines at the Circulation Desk with a credit card or Topper
Tender only, or at the Student Financial Services Office (MB 204) with
cash, check, or credit card. Fines over $10 are automatically
transferred to the SFSO and must be paid there. Borrowing privileges
are suspended when $50 or more in fines has accrued OR when 10 or more
items are overdue. If items are not returned during the grace period,
fines will accrue from the due date and item will go into "replacement"
status.
Alumni/Courtesy borrowers may
pay library fines at the Circulation Desk using cash, check, or credit
card. These borrowers must pay any outstanding fines before checking
out or renewing more items.
