I don't think you're correct here. In my own (anecdotal) exerience it seems to me that returns are up. In fairness books got lost or borrowers failed to return them before the change to abolish fines as well.
Did you speak to a member of staff and ask for a replacement book to be purchased?
- woadwarrior01 7y agoI did speak to one of the librarians at my local library and I'll be writing them a letter detailing my suggestions, soon. Based on the comments here, I suspect a decent middle ground of a solution would be to not lend books to people who have books overdue. That'd probably fly better than re-introducing fines. The public library system here Ireland is by far the best I've seen, and it's a bit discouraging to see people exploit a public good.
