Many public libraries have gone this route, but have academic libraries followed suit? Questions I would offer to the roundtable discussion would be:
If you have gone fine-free, what has worked well? What hasn’t gone well? What are key factors/implementations to keep in mind? What would be the hiccups of going fine-free? What is the desired outcome of going fine-free? Benefits? How do you differentiate between removing fines, but retaining bills/charges? If you have implemented it, have your patrons been confused about the differentiation between fines and bills? Did you go fine-free for everything or did you keep overdue fines for high-use, short-term loans, like technology items? How did/do you promote/market being fine-free or did/do you just quietly change it?
