Fine Forgiveness: Library

  1. Fine Waiver: Saratoga Springs Public Library Planning and Policy Manual Excerpt

    Customers may apply for a fine forgiveness program once every 36 months based on a demonstration of a medical or financial hardship for the adult account holder or co-signer.

    1. This program can allow for the forgiveness of a portion of the overdue fines. All items must be returned or replacement cost and processing fees must be paid.
    2. Customers must fill out an application for fine forgiveness within 120 days of the 30-day overdue notice being issued or within 120 day of the fine’s accrual date, whichever occurs first, to qualify for the program.
    3. Adjustments will be calculated as follows: customer will pay for 50% of the total of overdue fines. For example, if the customer owes $200.00, they will be responsible for $100.00.
    4. Customers may make payments until the amount has been paid in full with the minimum monthly payment of either 10% of the adjusted fine or $5.00, whichever is greater. They will be unable to resume the use of their Library card until the balance on their account is less than $10.00.
  2. The email address must be the email address associated with the account. You can sign into your account online to verify the email on file.
