Due Date Notices

We have two types of electronic notices regarding checked out item due dates: PreDue notices and Overdue notices.

Predue Notices and Examples

These notices are sent 3 days before, 1 day before, and 8 days after items are due (Despite these being called "PreDue notices", one is in fact a "freshly overdue" notice). PreDue notices are optional.

Examples:

TEXT

  • MFRL-CB: Reminder you have 1 item due 01/01/2010. my.mfrl.org Titles=Timeless
  • MFRL-BB: Reminder you have 3 items due 01/01/2010. my.mfrl.org Titles=Timeless,Haven,Thank y...

Titles will be displayed dependent upon number of characters available in text. Different types of PreDue notices are not combined. That is, if a patron has items that are due in three days, and items due in one day, they will receive two separate texts. These texts are sent at noon.

PHONE

  • Hello, this is the Floyd Library calling for Chris. This is your courtesy reminder that you have items due tomorrow and three days from now. You can check your account and renew items online at my.mfrl.org
  • Hello, this is the Blacksburg Library calling for Chris. This is your courtesy reminder that you have items due Eight days ago. You can check your account and renew items online at my.mfrl.org

We don't list titles on Phone notifications due to privacy concerns. As shown above, different types of PreDue notices are combined. These calls are sent at noon.

EMAIL

Emailed PreDues look very similar to eMailed OverDue notices. All titles and full descriptions are listed. Different types of PreDue notices are not combined. That is, if a patron has items that are due in three days, and items due in one day, they will receive two separate emails. These emails are sent during the 7AM hour.

OverDue Notices

These are sent at 2 weeks overdue and 4 weeks overdue. Additionally, a bill is sent at 6 weeks, but it is always sent via USPS. The 2 and 4 weeks notices are sent via Email, Phone, Text, or USPS mailer. The USPS mailer is for those without phone or email services. Patrons can not opt out of receiving Overdue Notices. All OverDue notices are sent on Wednesdays only.

Examples:

TEXT

  • MFRL-BB: You have 1 2-week overdue item which was due on 01/01/2020. my.mfrl.org Titles=Julian is a mermaid...
  • MFRL-CB: You have 3 4-week overdue items, the oldest was due on 01/01/2020. my.mfrl.org Titles=Julian is a merm...
  • MFRL-CB: You have 6 2week-4week overdue items, the oldest was due on 01/01/2020. my.mfrl.org Titles=Julian is ...

Titles will be displayed dependent upon number of characters available in text. If applicable, the two-week and four-week notices are combined. These texts are sent on Wednesdays at 9AM.


PHONE

  • Hello, this is the Blacksburg Library calling for Chris. This is your 4 week overdue notice. You have 1 overdue item, which was due on 05/01/2010. You can check your account and renew items online at my.mfrl.org
