It’s a Great Time to Return Overdue Library Materials!
The Jones Library and branches will be offering an amnesty period
from January 9 – 31, 2017 for library patrons who return overdue library
materials. Library patrons are encouraged to bring a
non-perishable, non-expired food donation for the Amherst Survival Center when they return overdue library materials during this time.
“This
is a great opportunity for patrons with long-overdue library materials
to get those items back to the library without having to pay the fines
that are accumulating,” says Amy Anaya, Head of Borrower Services at the
Jones Library.
It’s important to note that the amnesty applies only
to items that are being returned during this time. It will not be
possible to forgive existing overdue fines on items that have already
been returned, or for billed or lost items.
The
food collected will support the work of the Amherst Survival Center, a
local service agency that assists many in our community in meeting their
basic needs.
For further information about returning overdue items, please contact Amy Anaya at 413/259-3132.
