The Buda Public Library will be waiving all late fines for visitors who have overdue items checked out, starting Oct. 1 through the end of the year.
The gist
In 2019, the American Library Association adopted a resolution calling on libraries to actively move toward eliminating fines; many libraries across the country have begun dropping late fees, prompting city officials to try it out.
The City Council approved the matter at a meeting Sept. 19, which will aim to incentivize more visits from new and existing patrons.
