Lake Land College students also have multiple options for textbook returns.

• Students, or someone they designate, can return their books in person to the Bookstore, the Kluthe Center in Effingham, the Eastern Region Center in Marshall or the Western Region Center in Pana. Check with each location for hours of operation.
• Students may return textbooks via USPS, UPS, or FedEx provided they are post marked on due date or before.
• To be certain all books are returned, click on the link, “Textbooks Rented”, in the Laker Hub to view all items rented for the current semester.

Cost of defacement or damage will be paid by the renter at the new retail price.

Purchased course materials (workbooks, access codes, etc.) can be returned by the 10^th day of the semester (5^th day Mod/Summer) with receipt and in original condition.

Merchandise and apparel must be returned within 30 days and must be accompanied with the receipt and original tags.

It is the student’s responsibility to maintain records that may be necessary for tax purposes.

All rented items must be returned to the College by the close of hours on the 5th college business day after the last day of final exams. Beginning on the sixth day, students will be charged new retail price of unreturned rentals. Textbook return deadlines are published on the Laker Calendar.

After the period mentioned above, any textbooks that have not been returned to the Bookstore will become the property of the student and the total cost for those books will be added to their bill. At that time, books can no longer be returned to the Bookstore and any future financial aid, scholarships, or student loans may be held or applied against these charges.

Students with late textbook charges will be blocked from receiving transcripts and will not be able to register for any classes until the charges are paid.

Students can stop by the Bookstore or Kluthe Center during normal business hours with a valid picture ID (i.e. driver’s license or passport) to get a Lake Land Student ID made.

There is a $10 fee for replacement IDs.

Computer and mobile device services are available on a limited basis through the Tech Team located in the Bookstore.  Sample services include but are not limited to tune ups, malware/virus removal, flash drive and hard drive recovery, hardware upgrades and replacements, OS re-installs and mobile device screen repair.

Estimates are free. All work done and advice given is by students within the IT or computer repair programs. Call 217-234-5483 for more information.

Each rented item has a unique number and I am responsible for each unique numbered item rented to me.

I will pay the new retail price of each rented textbook not returned to the College by the above date. Restrictions apply for outstanding fees.

I am responsible for the condition of the textbook(s) rented. I will pay the new retail price of each rented textbook that has an unreasonable (determined by the Lake Land College Bookstore staff) amount of underlining or highlighting or in unreasonable condition.

Some textbooks will include CDs. A textbook cannot be returned if the CD is missing or damaged.

I am responsible for any lost or stolen rented textbook(s).
