Does the library charge for damage to items?
Library items should be returned in the condition in which they were checked out. If they are returned with major damage (e.g. wet from water or drink damage, chewed by a pet, pages or pictures cut out or missing etc.,) you will be asked to pay the original cost of the item plus a $10.00 processing fee (which is non refundable).
You are responsible for the cost of the item when library materials are stolen while checked out on your library card. Check with your insurance. You may be covered for the cost of the theft. Report the theft to the police.
