During Teen Read Week Oct. 14-19, teens and children 16 and younger who have fines related to late returns may “pay off those fines simply by reading at the library,” according to Great River Regional Library website.
“For each 15 minutes of documented reading at the library, $1 in late return fines will be eliminated. Parents of young children can assist by reading to them. The goal is to make young people feel welcome at the library and to encourage the reading habit,” according to the Great River Regional Library website.
