Why does the self-checkout machine say that I am a "delinquent"?
Answer
The software used by the University of Alberta Library uses the term “delinquent” to refer to a person who has fines on their accounts, even if it is a fine of 50 cents or 150 dollars. If the fine is over $50, your account will be blocked from borrowing books until you pay down the fine, or return the item the fine is attached to.
