MOVED BOT

All the Adult Audio Books are along the back wall again.

Geek t-shirts and green bags

We will be selling geek t-shirts and a green bag together for $4. The t-shirts are located in the workroom next to the disc cleaner with a tally sheet for sizes on top. Please mark off the size you take so we can keep an inventory of the sizes. The t-shirts in the basket is all that we have. Money collected should go under SALE ITEMS on the cash register.

Amnesty on Fines

APRIL 9-21, 2011

 To celebrate National Library Week the Homer Township Library will offer Amnesty on Fines. 

Our Amnesty will be for 2 weeks so the Bookmobile waive fines too. 

• Fines will be waived on all overdue items belonging to the Homer Township Public Library returned during these weeks. 
• Patrons can discreetly return items in the book drops outside even when the library is closed.
• Late fees up to $20.00 will be forgiven during these weeks.

Amnesty does not apply to lost or damaged items or previously incurred fines.

Kill-A-Watt Meters

We now have 2 Meters for patrons to check out.  They can be used to measure how much electricity home appliances are using.  There are instructions in the "bag".  The meters will be kept at the Circ-Desk and are marked with "Circ-Desk" as the location in the computer.  They are also available for local holds only.
The check out period is 7 days and the fine should be $0.15 per day.  The fine would also max out at $5.00 and they cannot be renewed.

UPDATE ON PINNACLE INFORMATION

Add the previous information:
Our patrons can still request holds of items that belong to a Pinnacle library, but they need to go through our ILL dept.  (Adult Services)

Since there will be an increase the number of items requested outside of PrairieCat (our system) please follow the following procedure:

1. (Instead of sending directly to reference) Have patron fill out a request form
2. Tell patron we will only call if we are unable to place the hold
3. Give the form to Adult Services
