Books are charges 20 cents/day with a max of $10 per item. -- nm - ty97 Sep 5, 06:10 4
- Yeah, very few public libraries charge infinite overdues. They stop accruing pretty quickly and then it's just the value of the item that's billed. -- nm - mara Sep 5, 06:55 3
  - That's what I was curious about because in this case the book was significantly more expensive than a normal book -- nm - oblique Sep 5, 06:56 2
    - But that's dropped when the book is returned. You only owe the value of the item if you *don't* return it. -- nm - mara Sep 5, 06:59 1
      - True. Damn you and your infallible logic! -- nm - oblique Sep 5, 07:00
