A message from the Board of Trustees of the McCowan Memorial
Library:
As of April 4, 2022, the Gloucester County Library System
(GCLS) will be fine free for its cardholders.
The McCowan Memorial Library is a municipal library and is
not part of the GCLS. We will continue
to charge fines on materials that are returned late. Here is what this means for you:
1.
Pitman
cardholders will be charged fines on McCowan materials returned overdue.
2.
Pitman cardholders will not be charged fines on
overdue GCLS materials checked out at GCLS libraries or on GCLS materials
requested for transit and checked out here at McCowan.
3.
GCLS cardholders will be charged fines on
overdue McCowan materials check out at McCowan or requested for transit and
checked out at GCLS libraries.
4.
GCLS cardholders will not be charged fines on
GCLS materials requested for transit and checked out at McCowan.
We remind all patrons that the due date for all materials is
listed on the receipt you are provided at checkout. There are no fines on materials that are
returned on time. McCowan materials can
be returned at any LOGIN library (ask for a brochure for a list of all the
LOGIN libraries).
At this time, we are not certain which LOGIN libraries
outside of the GCLS will be fine free.
It will be the patron’s responsibility to ascertain if materials checked
out from other libraries are or are not subject to overdue fines.
As always, we are grateful to serve our community and thank
you for your patronage.
