GRAHAM PUBLIC LIBRARY <br />1100 CHERRY STREET <br />GRAHAM, TEXAS 76044 <br />Dear Patron: <br />The main purpose of the Graham Public Library, is to provide you <br />and your neighors with the best possible library service for the least <br />..cost to the tax payers. The library board and staff members welcome <br />your comments and suggestions about better service to our community. <br />We also need your cooperation. Our greatest problem has <br />always been lost and over -due books. A large number of over -due <br />books reat <br />g ly reduces our ability to serve you (no books -no service). <br />The library no longer charges fines for over -due books. Fines <br />represent a "User's Fee" (a rental fee), and does little to encourage <br />the proupt return of books. We prefer gifts from our patrons, not <br />user's fees. <br />The following is our now book loan policy: <br />1. Books are normally checked -out for 2 weeks. <br />2. Books may be re- checked for an additional 2 weeks, if <br />they have not been requested by other patrons. Please <br />call us at 549 -0600 if you wish to keep your books <br />longer than 2 weeks. <br />3. Staff members will continue to call at the end of each <br />2 -week period, if possible, to determine if you still <br />need that particular book. Please return all books <br />as soom as possible, so that other patrons may use them. <br />4. An almost unlimited number of titles may be borrowed from <br />the Fort worth Public Library on inter - library loan for <br />a period of 2 weeks with no renewals. <br />5. We still expect patrons to pay for lost and damaged books. <br />6. Patrons with books that are more than 30 -days over -due <br />may be refused library services until all over- due'books <br />are returned. <br />Thank you for your assistance. <br />X <br />Sincerely <br />Frank 11. Norton <br />Director <br />
