Youths can pay back their library fines by reading
Davis children, are your library fines building up? In lieu of paying them back, you can “read them off,” thanks to a program back for the fifth year at the Stephens Branch Library.
The campaign targets children and young adult library card holders, ages 5 to 18, who are able to read by themselves and owe overdue fines on their own library card for previously returned material.
Readers will earn a $1 credit for each 15 minutes spent reading a book of their choice in the library. The goal of the campaign is to encourage youths who have been blocked from checking out library materials to once again be able to return and take advantage of the resources available at the library.
“This is your library — we don’t want you to miss out on any services,” Yolo County Librarian Patty Wong said.
The program is offered at each of the eight branch libraries, including the Stephens Branch Library, 315 E. 14th St. in Davis. For more information, visit www.yolocountylibrary.org.
