LIBRARY FEES AND CHARGES 2019-20
The Deputy Leader of the
Council agreed the recommendations as outlined above
namely:
- To
approve the amended library fees and charges for 2019-20 as set out
in Appendix A with effect from 1 April 2019 to 31 March
2020.
- To
agree to implement a removal of library fines and have a historic
fines amnesty.
- To
note that this means that all books that go overdue from 1 April
2019 will no longer incur any overdue charges. For note, the
service will still retain the ability to charge customers for any
items that are lost.
- To
agree that all fines accrued up to 31 March 2019 will be wiped, and
any outstanding charges sitting on individual accounts (e.g. for
items lost) will also be cleared – this is the historic,
amnesty element of the proposal.
