It's my last day at Live 5 News. It will always have a special place in my heart!

It's been a great honor to serve as a journalist for this community. I truly appreciate all the support over the last nearly six years. #chsnews

When Alexis first started her job on the library's communication team about a month ago, I joked with her to eliminate late fees...

She works fast, y'all!

[Alexis Simmons @lex_chs]

Yes, by visiting your library branch! 🙂

"During the months of June and July, if a patron returns any outstanding or overdue library materials, or updates their account information at a library branch, then all fines or fees incurred prior to June 1 will be waived."

[Amy Lauren ♔ @ProudPatriot07]

@lex_chs @RobWayTV Will existing ones be forgiven? I've owed like $2.40 for a few years now. I wasn't able to pay online because it's under $5. So I've just owed it for years...

[Alexis Simmons @lex_chs]

Hey @RobWayTV!

Update for you: Late fees will now be forgiven for Charleston County residents!

[Alexis Simmons @lex_chs]

The Charleston County Public Library is going FINE FREE!

You can check out all the details in the link below 👇

[Charleston Library @ChasCoLibrary]

Starting June 1, CCPL will no longer charge fines for all overdue library materials, including DVDs and Blu-rays, CDs, Chromebooks, Hotspots, and other non-traditional items. https://t.co/HOXwMtcthT #chsnews #chsreads #LibrariesTransform
