About Us
Textbook due dates are typically the day after the last day of finals. For summer and winter/J- terms, the due date is the first day of classes of the following term (e.g., fall term for summer books.) If a student requires the book past the due date (e.g., took an incomplete, need to finish a paper), their instructor or adviser must email Textbook Services to request this.
- Students will receive an email from circulation@uwrf.edu after textbooks are checked out, when textbooks are checked in, when they are due, after they are overdue and monthly email reminders on the 2nd of every month.
- Late fines are $1/day per book to a maximum of $10 per book.
- At 28 days overdue, books will be set to LOST and an additional $10 long overdue fine will be applied.
- After 60 days overdue, student account may be sent to Student Billing for collection.
- Lost or severely damaged books will have to be paid for at replacement value in Alma.
- Pack all textbooks in a cardboard box or USPS Flat Rate Box. Fill any voids with packing material (e.g. air pillows, bubble wrap, newsprint).
- If you have only one or two books, you may use a padded shipping envelope instead of a box.
- Include a sheet of paper with your name and Falcon ID ("W") number inside the package.
- Seal box with packing tape.
