Privileges and Responsibilities:
|
1. Library ticket is not transferable
|
|
2. The borrower is fully responsible for the books borrowed on his ID card.
|
| 3. Absence and illness are not acceptable excuses for exemption from paying an overdue charge. In calculating the overdue charge, only Institute holidays are left out of the reckoning. If the due date falls on an Institute holiday, the book may be returned on the next working day without any overdue charges. |
| 4. The Librarian may recall a book at any time before its due date. He may increase the overdue charge for failure to return a book when it is due or recalled. |
| 5. The Library will usually send reminders to the faculty and to research scholars for the book due, but non-receipt of reminders is no reason for returning books late. |
| 6. If students do not renew or return the books issued against their name within a week of its due date, their borrowing facility may be withdrawn for a fortnight. |
| 7. If the Librarian considers that a borrower has not returned the books within a reasonable time of its due date as indicated in the recall notice, or in the book card, as the case may be, the borrower is liable to pay the cost of the book plus the prescribed overdue charge. |
| 8. If a book belonging to a set is lost, the borrower will be charged for replacing the entire set. |
| 9. In case of students lose the book/s issued to them they should report it immediately in writing to the librarian to avoid the accumulation of fine. They will be allowed a grace period of one week to confirm the loss in writing, to initiate the process of recovering the cost of the book/s. In case they produce the book/s after the grace period, they will have to pay the prescribed fine. The library service will also stand terminated until they settle their arrears - whether for the loss or as a fine. |
| 10. Textbooks borrowed for internal reference should be promptly returned. Non - return of textbooks, during the examination period, will be reported to the Chairperson, PGP/FPM, or to the next higher authority for necessary action. Apart from this, the student has to pay the fine fixed by the concerned authorities at that time. |
| 11. Members' ID card is Bar-coded. If ID cards get mutilated, for whatever reason, it has to be reported at the issue counter, where arrangements will be made for a new one.
