Information

ACTION REQUEST (Brief Summary)

Consider and take action on Resolution No. 18-126, approving updated Circulation Procedure for Moore Memorial Public Library.

BACKGROUND

We are proposing to change DVD fines from $2 a day to $1 a day and the max fine from $10 to $5.  We feel the current fine is too punitive and bars too many users from using the library.  We actually believe we will increase the amount of paid fines if users don’t feel they are too burdensome.
 
Some other changes are:
  • No longer requiring a patron use our computers for headphones
  • Cleaning up some language about formats we no longer carry
  • Changing the length of time a user is barred from putting an item on hold they did not pick up
  • Deleting language for policies that we no longer enforce
All changes were approved by the Library Board.
