BACKGROUND INFORMATION
FOR PROPOSED REVISIONS TO THE
SCHEDULE OF FINES AND CHARGES
REVISED FEES
1. OVERDUE ADULT AND YOUNG ADULT MATERIALS
$.20 to $.25 per item per day.
This increase is recommended to assist in recovering costs. The Schedule of
Fines and Charges has not changed since 1997, and'fines for overdue Adult
and Young Adult Materials were not increased at that time.
Revenue generation is expected to increase by less than the total estimated
fine. increase, since some materials will be returned earlier as a result of the
increased fine.
2. OVERDUE CD/DVD, EQUIPMENT, BIFOLKAL KITS AND
VIDEO PRODUCTS
$1.00 to $2.00 per item per day.
The fine charged for these overdue materials has not changed since in was
introduced in 1997. These items are in high demand, and the change is
intended to encourage the patron to return these items to the library when
due so that other patrons may have access to them. This increase will also
assist in recovering costs.
Revenue generation is expected to increase by less than the 100% increase in
the fine, since some materials will be returned earlier as a result of the
increase.
