New penalties for final year students who don't return library books

Final year students are being warned that they will not be able to graduate unless they return all library materials before they leave. This new university policy has come into operation for the first time this year.

All library books and materials must be returned and all outstanding library fines paid off.

According to a spokesman, “If you fail to comply, sanctions will be imposed: your final year results will be withheld and you will not be allowed to graduate.”

Each final year student is urged to check their library account before they leave NUIG.
