Sunday morning I usually grab a coffee and take time to catch-up on some stories I may not have had time to read throughout the week. I thought you might enjoy them with your Sunday morning coffee as well.
In Canadian libraries, the era of late fees may be headed to history books
Kudos to libraries across the country, including all libraries here in Nova Scotia for ending overdue fees on library materials, recognizing the impact this had on the most vulnerable of our population.
Librarians are citing social equity and trust in the public as key rationales for abandoning fines, along with research from American libraries suggesting an amnesty on accumulated penalties promotes a flood of returned books.
Denise Corey, chair of the council of regional libraries in Nova Scotia, said librarians had seen fines become a barrier to access for the poor and marginalized.
