OVERDUE NOTIFICATION |
Customers will
receive notification from the library system
at 7 days overdue. If you receive a notice
for a material you believe has been
returned, please contact Circulation
Services at
247-6446 immediately. A bill for replacement
is mailed at 6 weeks overdue.
DAMAGED MATERIALS
The current retail price or equivalent
cost of replacement plus a $5.00 processing
fee is charged for items damaged beyond
repair. Minor damage charges are established
by the Library Director.
Materials paid for in full become the
property of the patron and are stamped
"discard". Due to office space limitations,
damaged materials will NOT be held more than
15 days, but the charges WILL remain. Fines
will accrue on items billed for missing
parts or minor damages to ensure timely
customer action on these bills.
COLLECTION AGENCY
Delinquent accounts may be turned over
to the Monroe County Library System’s
collection agency, and the collection fee
added to the balance due.
BOUNCED CHECK POLICY
In the event that a check is returned to
the Gates Public Library due to insufficient
funds or closed account, you will be charged
for the amount originally due and any bank
fees charged to the Library.
LOST MATERIAL REFUNDS
WITHIN 1 YEAR
Materials lost and paid for may be
returned within 1 year of payment, for a
partial refund, but only if presented with
the matching receipt. Refunds will be minus
the processing fee and appropriate fine.
LOST OR STOLEN CARDS
Anything borrowed on your card up to the
time it is reported lost or stolen is your
financial responsibility. Call the library
immediately to report a lost or stolen card.
HOLDS
Library materials not on the shelves may
be reserved for a fee. You will be notified
when the item is available. Please ask the
clerk or librarian on duty for assistance
with a hold, or use the Patron-Placed Holds
feature in CARL.
Gates Public Library supplies older print
and nonprint materials, but not DVDs, Blu-rays,
Playaways, or reference materials (unless
purchased with non-local funds), to other
libraries' patrons. New materials bought
with local funds are not available for
interlibrary loan for one year after
receipt. In turn, other libraries make
certain parts of their collections available
for use by Gates patrons.
Materials not owned in the Monroe County
Library System may be obtained through
interlibrary loan for a fee.
