FISCAL IMPACT None t~R~specffully submitted, Library Director ~ CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA FEES FOR SERVICE POLICY POLICY NO.: PAGE 1 OF 2 EFFECTIVE: 10/4/94 REVISED: 12/4/97 APPROVED: 12/4/97 PURPOSE: The purpose of this policy is to outline the philosophy of fees for service to provide guidance for the staff and understanding by the public. POLICY: It is the library policy to charge cost-recovery fees for services beyond traditional or basic library services. Basic services have been defined as the loaning of book materials, answering of simple information questions, attendance at open children's and adult programming. Non-basic services have been defined by the library board as database searching, public access computers, videos, audios, reserve materials, interlibrary loan, photocopying and specialized class instruction. Fees will be assigned based on a cost recovery formula that will include a portion of stafftime, consumables and utility costs. While the Board may choose to subsidize services by charging less than full cost recovery, in no instance shall the Board charge more than the cost to provide the service. All fees will be subject to library board approval. Fees may also be established when an enhanced service is provided as an alternative to an existing free service. Fees may be established when the service clearly benefits one user to the exclusion of others or prevents reuse of the information provided. SERVICES FOR WHICH THE BOARD HAS DETERMINED A FEE MAY BE CHARGED: 1. Rental for media of all varieties 2. Interlibrary loan 3. Reserves 4. Lost library card 5. Temporary library card 6. Collection agency fee 7. Test monitoring 8. Computer rental with full Internet access 9. Classes offering specialized instruction 10.

POLICY: In order to make materials available to all patrons on an equal basis and protect the community' s investment in the library collection, the library will set policies goveming the return or replacement of materials borrowed by patrons. OVERDUE MATERIALS: On the day after the due date, all materials will be considered overdue if they have not been renewed or returned. After two weeks, a reminder notice will be sent. Materials will continue to accrue a fine until they are returned. In some instances the librarian will call the patron asking for the return of the material. GRACE PERIOD: A grace period of one day is built into the computer system. This allows for a 1 day margin for error. Videocassettes are exempt from a grace period. BOOKDROP RETURNS: A book drop in the parking lot of the library is available for convenience in returning library books during hours when the library is not open. If books or videos that may be returned in the bookdrop are in the bookdrop by the time the library opens, they will be credited with having been returned the day before. Materials such as tapes, cd=s and software may be damaged by depositing them in the book drop. FINES: All overdue materials accrue fines in the amounts listed below up to the maximum fine limits. Fines are based on item rather than patron. A child borrowing adult materials will be assessed an adult overdue fine.

Service to an entire family living in one household will be curtailed because of the delinquency of any member. Delinquency is defined as the accumulation of $25 in fines and fees for lost or damaged materials. LOST AND DAMAGED MATERIALS: Patrons are responsible for all materials checked out on their cards and are liable for the damages which may occur to library materials. The library will notify the patron of payment due for the replacement of the damaged item. Fees will include the cost of the item, processing costs and overdue fines. Items totally damaged may be given to the patron if the patron has paid the replacement cost, including replacement fee and if necessary, the Collection Agency fee of the item in question, and ONLY if the patron asks to keep the item.

STOLEN LIBRARY CARD: It is the responsibility of the patron to notify the library immediately in the event the library card is lost or stolen. The library will not hold the patron responsible for any items borrowed after the card has been reported stolen. Up until the date the card is reported stolen, the card holder-or the parent or guardian in the case of a minor-is responsible for all items borrowed on the card and all fines that may be accrued. Kidsmobile Circulation Policy Page 1 of 1 CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA KIDSMOBILE CIRCULATION POLICY POLICY NO.: PAGE 1 OF 1 EFFECTIVE: 8/8/02 REVISED: APPROVED: 8/8/02 PURPOSE: The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines governing the borrowing of materials specifically for the Kidsmobile. Guidelines include establishing what policies will be the same as regular library policy and what areas will offer alternative options based on the special needs of youngsters and the school environment. BACKGROUND: The Kidsmobile is a vehicle designed as a bookmobile and dedicated to children's services. In addition to park and neighborhood stops, the Kidsmobile visits school sites, at the request of the school, to provide book materials to registered youngsters. The Kidsmobile circulation policies have been developed with the following priorities in mind: 1) Safety of youngsters and staff 2) Ability to maximize the opportunity ora library visit to the schools. 3) Protecting the collection of materials CIRCULATION POLICIES: 1) All Circulation policies will apply to the Kidsmobile activities with the following exceptions: a. No fines will be charged or collected on Kidsmobile materials i. This policy is adopted as a safety item, to prevent the presence of cash on the vehicle and as a method to increase the use of materials by children, Kidsmobile Circulation Policy Page 2 of 1 knowing the youngsters using the Kidsmobile would not have cash available to clear fines on the visitation day. b. Standard loan period on Kidsmobile books is four weeks instead of two weeks. i. School visits are scheduled every two weeks. This gives youngsters two opportunities to return their books before they are overdue. c. Children are limited to borrowing three books at school stops and five books at afterschool stops. i. The small collection available in the Kidsmobile prompted the reduction in the number of items allowed to be borrowed per youngster per stop. d. Schools will be allowed to photocopy youngster's library cards for class room use as long as the parent has signed a release form, allowing them to do so. (Form attached.) i. Youngsters frequently forget to bring their library card to school on their visit date. This process ensures a maximum use of the Kidsmobile during each school visit. e. Fine threshold is $10 before a card is blocked, rather than $5. i. For safety reasons, patrons are not allowed the option of paying fines on the Kidsmobile, so the threshold is higher. Dear Parents/Guardians, In order to increase participation and eliminate the need for children to remember their library cards on bookmobile day, the library has a new policy that allows teachers to keep a photocopy of each child's library card in the classroom for use on the Kidsmobile. These copies will be kept at school and will only be valid for use on the Kidsmobile during scheduled stops at your child's school. They cannot be used at the library or at any other park or community Kidsmobile stops. If your child has a library card and you would like to take advantage of this, please check the box below and fill out the information requested. (We are asking for this information to ensure we have identified your child correctly and distinguish him or her from other children who may have the same or similar names). The teacher will photocopy your child's card and we will add a note authorizing the use of the copy at Kidsmobile stops at his or her school. I authorize my child to use a photocopy of his/her card at all Kidsmobile stops at my child's school. I understand that I will be responsible for all materials checked out with this photocopied card as I would with my child's library card.

Most of the increase is thanks to the popularity of the Kidsmobile. With nearly 7,000 items circulated so far this year, the Kidsmobile has also helped to register over 650 youngsters for library cards. Visitation to Archibald took a sharp drop this month, but overall, we are seeing only an average of 14 people less each day this year compared to last. Information Questions: The number of information questions dropped 11% this month. Children's Services experienced an unexplainable dip of 35%! Perhaps this is related to the 10% less visits during the month and the growing popularity of the Kidsmobilc. We will continue tracking these numbers over the next few months. Children's Programs: Storytimes and program attendance was up by 2% this month, showing an annual growth of 7%. The outreach programs created by Family Literacy Staff generated some nice numbers this month. The YES (Youth Enrichment Services) storytimes provided at Lions and Mulberry Learning Centers reached an audience of 338 youngsters in October. The "Kidsmobile" is going gangbusters, with 4,250 items circulated in October alone and 394 youngsters signed up for new library cards! Technology Center Visitors: This area demonstrates another 23% jump, with 103 patrons waiting for computers this October compared to the 60 waiting in October of 2001. Overall, demand for this service is up 29% for the year. Items Classified: Still feeling the impact of last year's push for children's books for the Kidsmobile, overall items classified is down 8% this year. Volunteer Hours: Thanks to the introduction of the "House Calls" program for the housebound, volunteers hours show a 16% growth this year over last..

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS In 1998, the Library Board approved the concept of closing two days during the fiscal year to conduct in-service training for full and part time employees. Staff recommends December 6, a Friday, for this year's in-service training. Mornings remain our lowest circulation timeframe. December 6 occurs during the slow-down of the holidays, and is one of our lowest circulation time frames. However, because of the popular "2 for 1" video program, we are recommending the in-service be limited to 4 hours. Under this recommendation, the following service would be offered: 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. In-service 2 p.m. - 6 p.m. Regular service and open hours The content of this year's program will consist of an update on issues surrounding the proposed Victoria Gardens Branch Library and Divisional Meetings. FISCAL IMPACT None. Deborah Kayo Cla~, Library Director
