Loan Periods & Fines

We have now eliminated fines on our circulating materials from the Hazelton District Public Library. However, should a patron lose or cause damage to an item, we will charge the appropriate fees in these instances.

Please note that items personally borrowed from another library or borrowed though Inter-Library Loan may be subject to fines as we will apply the owning library’s fine policy to their overdue and missing items.
