Starting October 1, OLS is Fine Free!

The Osceola Library System is going back to its roots and leaving late fines behind! On October 1, 2023, OLS will be a fine free library, having charged fines for overdue materials since October 2011.

 Patrons will no longer incur a daily fine of $.25 per item for returning print Library materials after the due date. Previously, fines on physical items such as books, DVDs and Books on CD accrue for 10 days and a user’s access to Library materials was blocked when fines reach more than $10.

In addition to not charging overdue fines on print materials going forward, all past overdue fines will be cleared, giving everyone a fresh start.

Replacement charges still apply for lost items - just bring it back and charges will be waived!

Celebrate spooky season with us if you dare!

Keep an eye out for specially themed programs going on at your local library this month!
