[Publib] Question regarding overdue fines and restrictions

[Carrie Russell]

Hello,
 
In response to a member query, ALA's Office for Information Technology
Policy is collecting information on the trend described below. If you
would like to share your library's experience with this issue, please
send an email to Carrie Lowe (clowe at alawash.org), Information Policy
Specialist at OITP. We'll post a summary with any responses we receive.
 
Question: If your  library suspends checkout privileges when patrons
receive a certain overdue fine threshold, does it also restrict access
to computers and/or internet access? Does your library restrict access
to anything else when a patron reaches this threshold? If you have a
policy about this issue, what does it say? 
 
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
