One of the suggestions we received many times in our recent survey was to bring back Fine Free Wednesdays. We are pleased to announce that effective immediately Wednesdays are Fine Free at the Marlborough Public Library! Any late items returned on Wednesdays will not generate fines. “Many people asked us to bring back fine free Wednesdays. We are glad to be able to do that, especially in these difficult economic times. We want to do everything we can to encourage people to use our library” said Susan Laufer, Marlborough Trustee Chair. Some items won’t be affected by fine free Wednesdays, such as late museum passes and some items borrowed from libraries outside of the CW MARS library network that Marlborough belongs to. The library will also assess a fee for lost or damaged items. New Items! Keep up to date on what new materials have arrived at the Library! Want your own copy? Sign up now!
