Overdue Materials
Fines for overdue library materials (except DVDs and videos) are charged at the rate of $.10 per day, not to exceed the current maximum fine as determined by the Public Library Directors Association. Overdue DVDs and videos are charged at the rate of $1.00 per day with a $10.00 maximum.
Inter-library loan overdue fines are based on the lending library’s return policy.
A balance of $25 in fines will result in a temporary suspension of Library privileges. A balance of $10 in fines will require a minimal payment in order to borrow Library items.
Lost Materials
There is a processing charge of $3.00 for lost materials, in addition to the replacement cost of the material. The charge for damaged DVD and video cases is $3.00.
