"Research has shown that fines are not effective in getting materials returned on time...libraries that have eliminated fines have found that long overdue items come back and patrons who avoided the library for years start visiting again.” #EndLibraryFines https://t.co/9qSSx1goKN
Yesterday the Omaha City Council approved an ordinance to permanently eliminate daily overdue fines at OPL, effective immediately. We're grateful to all who advocated for this change that will help eliminate barriers to access in our community. Thank you! https://t.co/FZErzgEVtc

This is trend across public and academic libraries. Still waiting for @bibliomontreal & @_BAnQ to get onboard

Halifax Public Libraries is eliminating fines for overdue books, saying that fines disproportionately affect vulnerable community members.
Nearly 38,000 people were blocked from borrowing due to past charges. They'll all get a blank slate.
It’s our valentine to the city we love: We’ve gone fine-free! 😍
That's right, as of today, the Free Library no longer charges fines for overdue materials! Learn more now: https://t.co/FO6c5Oco6x #FineFreeFLP

@Pleurobrachia We have petitioned in support of our library to #endlibraryfines. Not because of us but because of people we know who don't use the library anymore due to fine fears. ☹️
#libsinnovate when they remove library fines like Kirklees Libraries. Outreach work found a "fear of fines" is a real + current reason for not using libraries so they've changed responded. Great 'how to' session from
@KirkleesLibrary

@wawoodworth after an ethics commission statement that board members shouldn’t be exempt from fines, I convinced 2 more libraries to #endlibraryfines #wvlibraries
@BpoolLibraries have announced they've going to #endlibraryfines. Another for your growing UK list Ian @publiclibnews :)
Going to pitch #endlibraryfines at our next policy meeting so here's hoping I don't get shouted out of the room
Watching a community discussion online around how expensive books are so lets organise book swaps and go to 2nd hand bookshops - and not one mention of the #PublicLibrary! 🤦♀️I'm just like c'mon y'all USE THE LIBRARY TOO (or tell us what the barriers are! ->#EndLibraryFines)
