They applied the replacement cost to your account so that you would know how much to pay!. You will not be charged that amount (they will take it off) when you return the book!. Instead, you will pay the 10 cents a day fee, with a $5 maximum overdue charge!. So, depending on how many days it is late, the max you should pay is $5!.

Go return it!. That's all they really want!

Did you like the book!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I HAVE THE SAME THING!. WHAT SHOULD I DO!? IT HAS BEEN LATE FOR AWHILE NOW!. and the letter says that the fee is $51 something!.

WHAT SHOULD I DO!? this was from my dad's library card and i used it to borrow a book from the Main Library!.

IM SO WORRY ABOUT IT because i don't want to pay and i don't want my parents to find out about this! PLEASE HELPPP ME!

Main questions: Do i still have to pay the $51!.00!? If i return the book immediately now, would they still charge me anything!?

I REALLY DON'T WANT MY PARENTS TO FIND OUT ABOUT THIS! SO PLEASE HELPPP ME! THANK YOU!Www@QuestionHome@Com

it sounds to me like you were trying to keep the book!. That books I'm sure is flying off shelves with all its cult follower children!. They want their book!. If you have it in the condition you got it in then everything should be good!. Just pay the late fee, which is !.10 a day and probably the 5!.00 fee!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think that you only have to pay the overdue fee, if you return the book to the library, and it is in good condition, and willing to accept it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Just return it!. I get those all the time!. And I just return the book and it gets cleared off of my account!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

They will reduce it to a (sizeable) overdue fee!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you return the book, you wont have to pay anything because the book is not checked out in your name!.

good luck :) Www@QuestionHome@Com

you just asked this!. yes you need to payWww@QuestionHome@Com
