Loan Periods & Fines
Students must return or renew all overdue materials before they may enroll each semester.
Students who leave Oberlin without returning library materials will be billed for the cost of replacement and processing. Students may also face honor code and/or judicial charges for consistent disregard for library policies, lack of response to library notices, or other actions that interfere with others' use of the collection.
