If an item is lost, the library should be notified IMMEDIATELY.
Overdue fines continue to be accessed until notification is received.
All library patrons are responsible for the replacement of the lost item/s plus the accumulated overdue fines.
Lost books must be replaced with the same title, edition and author. If the first condition is not possible, a book on the same subject or closely related subject may serve as a replacement provided that it is hardbound and with the most recent edition.
In case the lost book is no longer available, the decision to accept the replacement book is determined by the Library Director.
If the patron found the book after being declared or reported lost and returns it, and if the book is in acceptable condition, the patron will be required to pay only the accumulated overdue fines.
Processing Fee P20.00
