Lister Hill Library's pricing policies are set by UAB.
Some of these rules include:
- We cannot charge internal customers more than it costs to us to provide the service or product.
- We are required to recalculate prices periodically and adjust them accordingly.
To determine the price you pay for products or services, we calculate exactly what it costs us to provide the service. That figure becomes the price. To that price we may be required to add a tax or surcharge.
We are required to send UAB Administration the 10% sales tax and 5% UAB surcharge on all money collected—excluding fees paid with UAB account numbers.
In essence, we are required to price everything to break even.
If you have questions about prices, contact Pat Higginbottom, the Associate Director for Public Services at 205-934-5432 or
