Library Cards
Your SMCC ID is your library card. IDs are issued at the Campus Security Office. Loan Periods
Interlibrary loan and online requested material is subject to the lending library's loan rules. Consult a SMCC Library staff member for more information. Materials borrowed directly from other libraries are also subject to the lending library's loan rules.
Late Fees and Other FinesOverdue SMCC material is fined at $0.25 a day. Late fees may be accrued up to $15.00 per item. Lost, damaged or non-returned material is billed to the student's account and will equal the cost of material plus a $20.00 processing fee. Overdue online requested material is fined at ten cents a day. Late fees may be accrued up to $15.00 per item. Lost, damaged or non-returned material is billed to the student's account and the cost will be determined by the lending library. Any outstanding fees may result in suspension of his/her student's library privileges and/or a hold placed on his/her college account.
Overdue notices are sent via email as a courtesy.
