Big news!

Starting July 1, BCLS is going fine free on most items! Say goodbye to overdue fines, you’ll be starting with a clean slate on fines for books, DVDs, CDs, magazines, video games, and technology-on-loan. However, you are still responsible for returning your items to the library to avoid a “lost” status, meaning you won’t be able to check anything out until the overdue items are returned. More information is available at the link below! Happy borrowing!
