Renewal is possible for everything except videotapes and books on reserve for another patron. You may call the library to renew your items.
Fines begin on the tenth day after a three-week item is due; the fine is $1.00 and goes up $.10 each day afterwards. The fine for a three-day item is $.50 per day and begins the day after the item is due. The fine for one-week items is $.10 and begins the day after an item is due.
Notification that you have overdue items will be made by phone or letter a few days after the item is due, then again about a week later. A third notice is an invoice for items borrowed, and a letter from the County Attorney. Your borrowing privileges will be suspended after the third notice until your record has been cleared. Then, for a year, you will be a probationary patron, with limited borrowing privileges. |
