Paying fines
Fines for overdue books will be re-instated from 1 September 2022, as part of the return to normal operations following the COVID pandemic.
- Renew or return your loans
- Why fines are being re-instated
- Contact Warwickshire libraries if you have any queries.
Payment can be made at your local library. To pay by cash, use our self-service machines and select the ‘pay’ option. Alternatively, ask a member of staff who can accept cash or cheques.
Replacing lost and damaged items
If you have lost an item you will be asked to pay the replacement cost. The replacement cost for lost items is listed on our library management system. If there is not a price on our system then a standard charge will apply.
Payment plan
If you are unable to pay all the charges, a payment plan can be set up. The plan is a signed agreement between you and the library service, informing you:
- why the method of payment is being used
- how much should be paid
- how regular the payment should be
- of the consequences of not maintaining payments
- that you can only borrow books when the outstanding amount is less than £10.
If you are concerned with any outstanding debt on your account, please contact your local library, where a member of staff will advise you on your options.
