Feedback on our services
From Tuesday 17 March until further notice no fines will be incurred on library loans. To enable easier renewals you can renew your items an increased number of times. Please contact libraryhelp@tees.ac.uk if you have any questions about fines.
Please ensure that you make a note of the due dates and renew or return your loans on time. Although we send reminders and overdue notices, the management of your Library account is your responsibility. Fines are applicable to all Library users.
When charges have been outstanding for 2 days or more, a stop will be placed on your account preventing new loans, reservations and inter library loan requests.
Fines are charged at the following rates:
Miscellaneous charges: Inter library loan (ILL) renewals cost will be added to your Library account when an ILL is successfully renewed.
To help you manage your account effectively, avoid fines and to obtain study resources, the Library produces a number of different email notifications sent to your University email address.
Courtesy notices are sent prior to the due date and on the day loans are due, they are just a courtesy reminder and will not be re-sent if they cannot be delivered to your email account. You are responsible for ensuring that your items are renewed or returned on time as overdue charges will be applied.
Overdue notices are emailed to you when items are 1 day overdue. A stop will be placed on your account when items are 2 days overdue and a further overdue email notification will be sent. Items which are significantly overdue will result in an invoice being raised for the replacement cost (£75 per item)
Reservation notifications alert you via email when your reserved item/s are available to collect.
Inter Library Loan notifications are sent via email for items received, cancelled, delayed, recalled or when the British Library require further information. To reply, please email libraryhelp@tees.ac.uk
My Account shows any fines and charges you may have incurred. You should pay any outstanding charges as soon as possible to avoid your account being stopped, payment methods are as follows:
You need a PIN to borrow items from the library, to renew and reserve items online via My Account. You can set up your own PIN or re-set an existing PIN by logging on at: MyLogin.

If you believe you may have extenuating circumstances that have led to fines, please email us at libraryhelp@tees.ac.uk and a Duty Supervisor will get back to you. You may be asked to provide documentary evidence, such as a doctor's note or a letter from a lecturer.
