What are the fines for lost library books?
FAQ Circulation
Tile HTML Summary

LSU Library books are considered lost if they are not returned or renewed within 40 days after the due date. Lost book charges consist of a $70 item replacement fee, a non-refundable service charge of $30.00, and any accrued overdue fines (usually $20 max). If you would like to report a book lost, please do so using the Lost Materials Form below. If you report a book lost before the due date, no overdue fines will accrue, and the service charge will be reduced to $25. You will still be responsible for the cost of item replacement. Please click to the Lost or Damaged Items link below for more information.
