Chits for services charged to a member's account may be signed only by the member or the member's spouse, unless an exception has been approved in advance by the manager of the Athenaeum. Statements for dues and services are mailed to members each month.
Payment is due upon receipt of the statement.
All payments received by the Athenaeum must be from the member's personal funds. We request that all members pay promptly upon receipt of the monthly statement. A service charge is applied to any balance outstanding 60 days. Members whose accounts are 120 days delinquent will be asked to refrain from charging additional services until the account is paid in full. After an additional 30 days, if the account is still delinquent, the House Committee will recommend to the Board of Governors that membership be discontinued and collection proceedings initiated.
