Library Policy for Overdue Materials
A hold is placed on a student's SelfService account when VVC Library materials are not returned. Students are notified of overdue materials via two emails to their student email account, and one printed letter mailed to their home address. Items that are 6 weeks overdue are considered lost materials. A hold is placed on the student's record and replacement costs are posted to the student's account. Fees are removed from the student's account when the materials are returned to the Library or after the fees are paid to the Cashier's Office. The goal of this policy is to encourage students to return library materials which are the property of Victor Valley College.
Student Accountability
As listed in the VVC Student Handbook:(Page 40) “Debts Owed to the College: Debts pending with Victor Valley College for loans, tuition, returned checks, athletic equipment, ASB fees, library books and/or book fees, failure to adjudicate outstanding vehicle parking citations, or failure to pay for other services will result in a student not being able to register until all debts are cleared. In addition, the student’s academic records will not be released until the debt is cleared.”
