4.6 Overdue Notification

Overdue notices shall be sent to patrons of the Garnet A. Wilson Public Library of Pike County who have materials which are past due.

 

The notice shall consist of:

First notice sent when the items are up to one week past due.

Second notice shall be sent when the items are up to two (2) weeks past due.

Third notice shall be mailed when the items are up to three (3) weeks past due.

 

A service charge of $5.00 per item will be assessed to cover the cost of re-processing each item. Re-processing refers to ordering, cataloging, and processing replaced materials.

 

Patrons having past due materials shall be restricted and may not check out other materials until their records have been cleared.

 

Overdue notices are sent as a courtesy. Therefore, failure to receive an overdue notice does not absolve a patron of responsibility for fines, etc.
