Library Cards and Borrowing Materials
No charge is required for borrowing library materials or for applying for a new library card. A lost library card may be replaced for $1. When a patron’s fines exceed $5, s/he will not be allowed to check out materials or use a computer until the amount due is less than $5. No fines are assessed on Sundays, holidays or any other day the library is closed. Items returned in the outside drop box will be checked in as of the day prior to the date they were found in the box. There are also no fines for children's materials of any kind.
