RENEWAL OF MATERIALS: You may renew

OVERDUES: Two overdue notices will be
sent, and then borrowers will be billed for the book. Patrons
are required to return books on the due date, whether or not
the notices have been received. No accommodations will be
made for borrowers living at a distance from the university.
Stops will be placed on the home-library records of borrowers
with long overdue items.
RECALLS: Books borrowed through TexShare
are subject to recall. The recall date replaces the original
due date.
NON-CIRCULATING ITEMS: Many classes
of items in the library are "non-circulating," and therefore
unavailable for TexShare borrowing. These classes include
reference materials, periodicals, and microforms.
LOANS: The loan period for TexShare student
borrowers is two weeks, with one renewal possible. The loan
period for TexShare faculty borrowers is one semester.
FINES: Library fines are $.10 a day,
per item, with a maximum fine of $10.00. TexShare borrowers
are charged for lost, damaged, or long-overdue items.
LOST ITEMS: TexShare borrowers
are billed automatically for lost books.
ADDITIONAL: ADDITIONAL: Call the
Circulation Department with additional questions, at 713-221-8186,
or visit the W.I. Dykes homepage, at http://www.uhd.edu/library/.
