Public Library Fine Forgiveness?



Check out this library in Florida that allows kids and teens to "read down" their fines. While most patrons may not owe much in fines, this is still an awesome way to encourage more reading. -

Here's an article on a different public library offering fine forgiveness. -
Reading Public Library in Pennsylvania.


The Palm Beach County program is only for kids and teens and available all year, but the program in Reading Public Library was offered in two different ways, one for adults and one for kids.

Check them out. Just another awesome service that some public libraries are offering and maybe more in the future will follow. These type of services serve dual purposes.

Does your public library offer any fine forgiveness programs?
