Looks like just $10 + cost of book.
Fines
Regular books: When a book is 14 days overdue a bill of $50.00 per book will be generated and sent to the user. This includes $40.00 for the cost of the book and a $10.00 non-refundable processing fee. In the event that the cost of an item not returned significantly exceeds the standard fee, the library reserves the right to charge a fee based on the actual replacement cost.
