If the item has still not been returned 60 days after the due date, the patron's account is sent to an outside collection agency. Patrons are not permitted to provide replacement copies of lost or damaged items in lieu of paying replacement costs. In the event that a patron disputes any of the fines or fees which have been assessed by the library, the matter will be referred to the Library Director who shall have the authority to waive all or part of the patron's fines, depending on the particulars of a given situation. Patron's Rights Library cards will be issued to all those who fulfill the requirements. There is no age restriction of any nature on the right to have a card.
Patrons have the right to complete confidentiality of their borrowing record.
At no time will the Library divulge any information about a patron's record, even if it is a police inquiry.
