• Failure to receive a courtesy heads up or overdue notice
• Inability to renew online
• Not returning recalled materials because patron is out of town or country

To appeal on other grounds, please complete and submit the form below. You may be contacted to provide documentation: for example, a doctor's certificate to accompany an appeal on medical grounds.

Refunds - A refund may be granted for the return of lost material, or a duplicate credit-card payment. Refunds for returned material are only granted within one year of the original payment of your lost item charge.

• The date of the payment
• How the payment was made- Self-Check machine, My Account, or InfoLink (proof of payment, i.e. online receipts may be required).
• Form of Payment-credit/debit card
