Hey, I just checked at the library I used to use, and they seem to have reduced the fines.
This is great. They're at least 1/2 what they used to be and the cap is lower ($30.00/ book).
I may have to start taking books out again. Although I actually don't have to pay fines-- so I could have been doing it anyway. I think, anyway. I have to check on my status at the moment.
If you lose a book, it depends on the library-- ie the psychology, main stacks, etc-- but still, the daily fine is much more reasonable.
There are actually afew books I want. So tomorrow, I may go and get them.
Thanks, notfred. Really interesting development.
