What do you charge for late books?
What is your policy on overdue materials?
Answer
As of March 2024, NOPL is officially fine free. We do not charge fines for late items from our collection, though items that are over 30 days overdue are declared "Lost". For lost or damaged items, fees for the price of the item and processing will be placed on your account. This fee will be automatically waived if the item is returned in good condition.
Interlibrary loans (ILLs) are materials from other library systems and not covered under NOPL's fine free policy. The late fine for these items is $1/day.
