Information
ACTION REQUEST
Consider authorizing the Director of Library Services to remove delinquent fees and fines that are attached to library patron accounts that expired prior to November 1, 2015.
BACKGROUND (Brief Summary)
It is the practice of Moore Memorial Public Library to delete patron accounts that have been expired for 7 years or more. These accounts cannot be deleted until all fees and fines attached to those accounts have been removed. This purge was not performed during the library's renovation in 2019 or during the Covid-19 pandemic, therefore there are several years of expired accounts to be deleted.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the Director of Library Services is authorized to remove delinquent fees and fines that are attached to library patron accounts that expired prior to November 1, 2015.
