No fines here!
If you have fines on your account, let's get rid of them! Come to the library and talk to Ms. T and we'll make a plan to clear your account.
If you have any books from any PPS library at home, bring them in. While fines are automatically applied for materials marked as lost, they will go away as soon as you bring those materials back.
Can't find a book? That's fine, just let me know and we'll work on getting rid of those fines.
You found the book but it ran afoul of your puppy or a cup of coffee? Don't worry about it. Again, just let me know and we'll take care of it!
Help make the library even more awesome!
