    I have a pretty massive fine for the library which I incurred during superfines last year, I need to write a letter to try and sort something out as I am struggling already not being able to borrow books. I don't have a medical cert so don't know where to start. Any tips?

    no, he's dodging as he said...
    OP, report the book(s) lost and pay the value of the books.

    You can get fines higher than the price of the books? That's pretty impressive

    Get onto Jen Fox in the SU and she will advise you on how to go about things. The Library can be very helpful about matters of this kind and may be able to arrange staggered repayment of fines.

    If you have a problem paying fines you need to come in and talk to us..we're not monsters and it happens all the time...there are a number of options available but you must come in and talk to somebody first.
    Was it in BLU or Hamilton?
