Fines and Fees
Although most of the GW community is away from campus, borrowers still renew or return items when they are due. Borrowers may renew items through their library account up to three times. Renewals are not automatic. Once an item has met its renewal limit it must be returned to the library.
For any questions or concerns regarding material returns, e-mail GW Libraries' Access Services team.
Fines for overdue or lost items GW owns may be paid by phone with a credit card*. To make a payment call 202-530-3947.
We are unable to accept cash, Gworld, checks and money orders in person or by mail at the time.
*we accept all major credit cards, except American Express.
Fines owed to any WRLC consortium school may be paid at your home institution library or directly to that school. The grid below provides detailed contact and payment information for our consortium partners.
