Dear Mr Sherpa,
the amount of fine is differ from one institution to another. Most of the cases the decision of the fine amount is taken the by the management of the institution. if a book lost then the pricing amount calculated on the basis of present market rate generally. yes, it differs in the fine amount for students and faculties in most of the instititions as per my knowledge. I will suggest you, if u have a confusion regarding fine amount, may discuss with ur higher authority.
surajit.
