Late Returns and Damaged Items:

To ensure fair access for all members, items must be returned by the due date in their original condition. Late returns may result in the forfeiture of your deposit and could lead to temporary suspension of borrowing privileges. In cases where items are damaged, lost, or not returned, DUPA reserves the right to retain the full deposit to cover repair or replacement costs. Repeated offences may result in longer-term restrictions on library access.
