Fines happen. What’s the next step?
We’ve all been there - sometimes the date slips your mind, and next thing you know you’ve got overdue library books! So what happens next?
First off: don’t panic! The fine for late books is only $0.50 per day! Other fines, like for DVDs and equipment, are a little higher. You can check the full list of fine amounts here: http://library.umbc.edu/circulation.php#fees
If you can’t get to the library immediately, try renewing the item. You’ll still have the original fines, but you’ll stop accruing more. (Note: not all items can be renewed. For example, a recalled book cannot be renewed this way. But it’s worth a try!)
When you’re ready to pay your fine, head to the Check Out Desk. Payment options are Campus Cash, credit card, or check. (Note: you can only pay your bill at the library for the first 30 days. After that, the Student Business Office takes over.)
Do you have a question about your fine? You can contact the Circulation Department for answers at 410-455-2354. If you would like to appeal a fine, please fill out the Library Fine Appeal Form.

Day One: Cut to the Heart
Acts 2:37-39 - “When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, ‘Brothers, what shall we do?’ Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off-for all whom the Lord our God will call.’”
At Pentecost, Peter replied to the bystanders by preaching the gospel in the power of the Spirit. We are given unique insight into the audience’s response of how they were cut to the heart by the message and were further inquiring what they should do in response. The direction he gives is to repent and be baptized. Repentance is to turn from the old way of life, which includes mindset, behavior and affiliations - all and only to belong to the Lord. Baptism is to make a public profession of faith and go through training and accountability in the church. It is a radical and decisive transfer of reality for the believers. And the promise that follows is forgiveness of sins, empowering by the Spirit and blessing to include your family!
It is evident that Peter has a holistic response in mind for the Christians when he brings about repentance and baptism. And it is the right biblical response when we are to be cut to the heart by the word of God and the ministry of the Spirit.
Response: If you have yet to be baptized, do consider strongly how you are responding to God’s message day in and day out. As you continue to make radical and decisive changes in your life, do come under the leadership of the church and grow toward baptism. If you are already baptized, let it be a reminder of the new reality we have in Christ!

Fully Furnished Summer Room
Rent a Room for a Fraction the Price June-Aug
Hello!
My name is Uche and I am looking for a student to rent out my room while I am away for break.
I currently have an apt along with my current roommate. I have the master bedroom that is fully furnished with a queen sized bed and a desk along with a hanging TV screen.
I am not going to be in Baltimore for most of the summer and I need someone to rent my room over the summer for a reasonable price. My portion of the total rent and utilities including wifi is 700 a month but I am looking for someone to pay 580 a month. The price is negotiable !
The apt is Brookstone Apt company and is 15 min away from campus. You would need to drive to get to school. Other than that, the apt is really exquisite and nice. My personal room is big and the whole place is spacious. The area around is quiet and parking is simple. Let me know if you would be interested , I could show you the room as well.
P.S. I am a female and currently a senior who also lives with another female roommate who is very understandable and relatable. She will be around for most of the summer.

Apply to an Object Lessons Workshop
Sponsored by the National Endowment for the Humanities
How can scholars and nonfiction authors write for broader audiences while maintaining intellectual rigor and developing their academic profiles?
In 2017 - 2018, Object Lessons will host four NEH Institutes. These workshops will offer guidance and strategies for answering this question, especially in light of trends in the humanities toward open access publishing; evolving expectations for tenure and promotion; and the emergence of new publishing opportunities such as e-books, digital media projects, and online venues that cater to blended audiences across academia and general readerships.
This institute is designed for academics and writers who seek to write and publish for broad audiences, particularly about contemporary technology, everyday objects, and digital culture. The institute’s workshops—geared to scholars as well as nonfiction writers from across disciplines—aim to better equip participants to pitch their ideas and publish their writing in venues that exist fruitfully between both traditional academic and trade publishing routes.
WHO IS PUTTING THIS ON?
The hosts are Dr. Ian Bogost and Dr. Christopher Schaberg, founding editors of the Object Lessons essay and book series published by The Atlantic and Bloomsbury. Bogost and Schaberg—along with guest authors, editors, and publishers—will help participants navigate the new frontiers of academic publishing and increasing pressures on the academy to make its work legible to broad audiences.
WHEN AND WHERE IS IT?
The institute will offer four separate two-day workshops, coinciding with major academic field conferences:
Early November, 2017. Tempe, AZ. (around the annual conference of the Society for the study of Literature, Science, and the Arts [SLSA], Nov 9-12, 2017)
Late November, 2017. Washington, DC. (around the annual conference of the American Anthropological Association [AAA], Nov 29-Dec 3, 2017)
Early January, 2018. New York City. (around the annual convention of the Modern Language Association [MLA], Jan 4-7, 2018)
Early March, 2018. Tampa, FL. (around the annual conference of the Association of Writers and Writing Programs [AWP], Mar 7-10, 2018.)
Exact dates will be announced soon; pending final logistics, we hope to hold all workshops the two days prior to each conference.
WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
The workshops will feature lectures and practical exercises from the organizers, as well as discussions with visiting experts in journalism and publishing (trade and academic). Topics covered will include pitching, proposing, and crafting articles and book manuscripts.
The expected outcome of the workshops is for each participant to leave with a project suitable and ready to pitch and/or propose to a publisher or other venue. Such projects include (but are not limited to) online articles, longform essays, and general audience books. Work will not be limited to the Object Lessons series, although participants are welcome to pitch to us, too.
IS THERE FINANCIAL SUPPORT?
Yes. Participants will receive a stipend to offset the costs of travel, lodging, meals & incidentals during the institute. Stipends may vary based on unique circumstances at each venue and for each participant, but an average value of $1,000+ is expected. Participants who have already planned to travel to the conference can use the stipend in tandem with, or in place of, other institutional funding.
CAN I ATTEND THE CONFERENCE BEFORE OR AFTER THE NEH INSTITUTE?
Yes, your travel can extend to include the conference; however, conference registration, and any additional lodging and meal expenses will not be covered by the NEH institute during those additional days.
IS THE WORKSHOP LIMITED TO U.S. CITIZENS?
No. The NEH funds participants from any qualified applicant; however, most participants will likely be based in the United States.
HOW DO I APPLY?
Applicants should apply to a single workshop, below, no later Friday, June 30, 2017.
Applicants will need to submit:
A short statement of interest (no more than 500 words)
A concise C.V. (no more than two pages)
A writing sample (no more than 2,000 words)
A letter of support
Successful applicants will be notified by July 31, 2017.
WHAT ARE THE SELECTION CRITERIA?
Approximately ten participants will be chosen for each workshop. Participants will represent a range of professional backgrounds, including college/university faculty, staff, and advanced graduate students; independent scholars; journalists; and other nonfiction writers. Participants will be chosen based on the following criteria:
Proposed project’s specificity, timeliness, and relevance
Evidence of ability to write for broad audiences
Promise and quantity of research already completed or in-progress
Potential for the applicant’s proposed topic to interest a wide audience
Applicant’s rationale for fit with the institute
Submissions will be reviewed separately for each workshop, so be sure to select a workshop date and venue you can attend.
WHAT IF I HAVE QUESTIONS THAT AREN’T ANSWERED HERE?
You can email us at workshop@objectsobjectsobjects.com. Please be sure to read this whole page first, though, before you generate email!
Please visit the Object Lessons website (link below) to apply.
