property of the Keller Public Library by checking out such material
upon a duly issued library permit card, hereinafter termed the "borrower,"
shall return the item or items so checked out on or before the date
specified by the librarian or the assistant librarian for each item
so checked out. Failure to return any such item on or before the due
date shall, in addition to the penalties provided in this Section,
subject the borrower to the nominal fine or other penalties provided
by the administrative rules of the library. The librarian may, following
the due date of any unreturned item, notify the person to whom the
item was checked out or their reference contact, that the material
is overdue and that it must be returned forthwith. This notice may
be given by telephone and/or ordinary mail addressed to the borrower
at his/her address as shown on his/her library card. Any person who
fails to return any overdue item or property checked out to him/her
within thirty (30) days after the mailing of such notice to return
such overdue item shall be deemed guilty of a violation of this Section.
If return of the property is not made within thirty (30) days following
the mailing of such notice, the librarian may cause a complaint to
be filed against the borrower in the Dexter Municipal Court. A person
to whom such overdue notice is sent who is unable to return the property
which is overdue because of loss or destruction thereof may escape
prosecution hereunder by paying the librarian, within the thirty-day
limit above provided, the original cost price of such item as shown
on the records of the librarian. A receipt signed by the librarian
evidencing such payment shall operate as a bar to prosecution for
failure to return such item.

fined not less than one dollar ($1.00) nor more than two hundred fifty

the cost of such property.
