Replacement

Fine Limit

Once a patron has accumulated $10.00 in fines, their borrowing privileges will be blocked.

Other

The library does contain movies that are Rated-R. It is the policy of the library that responsibility for what children are exposed to rests with their parents or legal guardians. The library will not assume parental responsibility nor will it be placed in the position of determining who can or cannot check out “rated” movies.
