Does the library use a collection agency to track down long overdue materials?
YES, library users owing $25 or more in fines and or in unreturned materials can be referred to a collection agency. As a result, failure to return library materials or pay fines could affect your credit rating. Those accounts with items under $25.00 are not sent but the patron is not able to use their card until the fines are paid and or items are returned or paid for if lost.
