How do I appeal my library fine?
Answer
Fines/fees/billed items are centrally handled through UW Library Account Services.
Any library borrower may appeal library fines, fees or replacement costs through the online appeal form. The Libraries understands that fines and fees can be a detriment or barrier and aims to give our users a process to mediate them. The form gives space to explain why library error or extenuating circumstances may have contributed to the situation, or whatever information the user feels is relevant. Fines, fees and replacement costs must be appealed within 6 months of their assessed dates, and may only be appealed once.
