Loan Periods and Late Fees

Loan Periods & Late Fees During Phase 1 Re-opening

During Phase 1 of our Re-opening Plan...

We have extended the loan period of physical items to 4 weeks.
We have temporarily suspended fines in recognition of the fact that many in our communities have experienced financial challenges due to COVID-19.
