Only cash or personal check may be used to pay for either incoming or outgoing faxes. Credit cards, phone cards, and third party billing are not accepted. All payments must be prepaid before faxing our or receipt of materials. The patron must have the fax number ready before asking to use the machine, including area codes for long distance or country codes for international calls. Charges cover telephone costs, including long distance.
Basic charges are for calls placed within the United States only.
If the patron chooses to not send the fax because of a busy signal, the money paid will be refunded in full. Incoming faxes will be filed in manila folders in alphabetical order by receiver's last name and will be held for 10 days and then discarded. Patrons expecting a fax must call the library to check to see if it has been received. A notice will be placed on the incoming fax indicating the date received and the amount due. The bill must be paid in full before the fax will be turned over to the patron.
