Overdue charges for OIT-owned items accrue to a maximum of $10.00 per item.  When this charge is reached, and the item is not returned, the borrower will be charged the maximum $10.00 overdue fine, plus the replacement cost of the item (minimum replacement charge is $20.00), plus a $10.00 processing charge, plus a $10.00 billing charge, for each non-returned item.

For Alliance and ILL items, fines accrue until the item is returned, with no set maximum.  Replacement charges for Alliance items are $75, plus a $20.00 processing charge, plus a $15.00 billing charge for a total of $110.00 for each Alliance item not returned.  Replacement charges for ILL items are established by the lending library, and will include a $20.00 processing charge, plus $15.00 billing charge, for each ILL item not returned.
