Return Policy
Libraries offer invaluable, free resources to the community, yet returning books past their due date might have serious consequences, ranging from fines to legal actions. To circumvent escalating penalties, patrons typically ensure their borrowed materials are returned promptly, helping maintain the library’s circulation and access for everyone.
At this library, patrons are humorously instructed to proclaim ‘not a squirrel’ while using the book return, a quirky measure to deter local wildlife. It appears squirrels have developed a taste for something other than their usual diet, favoring the librarian named Keith’s lunch over their typical fare of dry corn, bark, and leaves. It’s an amusing reminder of the unexpected challenges one faces in maintaining community services.
