Materials may be renewed at the Special Collections circulation counter, or online via Hawaiÿi Voyager.

Renewals will not be accepted via telephone, fax or e-mail.

• $.50 per day per item (including holidays and weekends)
  
• There is no grace period.
  
• When the maximum overdue fine reaches $10, the item is considered lost. Then an additional processing fee of $3 is assessed (for a total of $13) PLUS the cost of replacing the material. The cost of the material is determined by the call number.
