BEALS MEMORIAL LIBRARY

Do you have overdue library items at home or have you returned items late? Have you been concerned about the fines you have accumulated?

​

Worry no more! Return any overdue materials, and we will waive any fines during Library Card Sign Up month. 

​

This applies to materials that are overdue by a week, two months, or even two years. Two decades? That’s okay too! Just bring them back! This includes most items checked out from the library: books, audiobooks, music CDs, magazines, DVDs, large print, and more. 

We will not waive fees for lost items, museum passes, or from our Library of Things collection. 

--

Do you have old, overdue fines on your account? Simply present your library card or ID to erase any overdue fines up to $10 from your account.

​

Can’t find your library card? Visit the library to get a new one for free!
