University of Virginia Library

Keypunch System

The charge card will be keypunched
at a later time and entered
into the automated system
from which printouts of the
books in circulation, computer
printed overdue notices, and statistics
of library use will be produced.

These printouts will be put out
three times a week. A public copy
of the latest printout will be
available to students who wish
to find if a book they need is
currently checked out.

When a book is returned the
discharge card will be removed
and sent to the Data Processing
Center in Garrett Hall. A list of
returned books will then be
checked against a list of books
due.

There will be a fine of $1 for
every book returned without a
discharge card.
