[OPLINLIST] Zero Balance

[Susan Pieper]

Hello all:
We are forced to take drastic steps over here in Black Swamp land. Effective
December 1st, no patron will be allowed to borrow library materials, or use
library computers unless they have a "zero balance". Big sigh... can't
believe I'd see it in my lifetime. Also, we are starting to use a collection
agency. Gotta cut the budget by close to $100K. These are tough times,
indeed...
Best,
Susan
