[Publib] AV Fines

[Jennie J. Stoltz]

We charge $1.00/day for overdue videos & DVDs (both Children's and adults) because of the high demand.

We charge $.15/day for all other materials though we do not charge fines for minors (17 and under) who check out children's or YA materials.

There is a maximum fine of $10 per item and we have a three day grace period for all items except videos & DVDs.

Our Circulation of Materials, Loan Periods & Fines policy is on our website - http://www.pewaukeelibrary.org/BOT.htm
