[ILL-L] damaged item charges

[Barbour, Patricia A.]

For lost items I check the current ability/cost to purchase for replacement of
the material.  If I'm unable to locate a current cost, then we have a set rate
of $65.00 plus processing/billing fee.

Hi Nora,

    We also check with Technical Services to determine the cost of repairing the item or if it needs to be replaced.
The average repair cost is $25.00.

We charge a damage fee rather than replacement fee when only the binding has been damaged and the book can be rebound. We check with our Technical Services department to determine what the rebinding will cost and charge that amount. It's usually under $20.

Apologies for cross-posting.

I'm working on a lost/damage charges document and would love some feedback on what you do at your institutions.  Do you charge for repairs, as opposed to charging a flat replacement fee?  How do you figure a fair amount to charge for repair? 

Any insights would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Nora
