Fines are determined by the library from which items are checked out, no matter which library owns the items, or where they are returned.

The Mamaroneck Library outside book return is open 24 hours. Items for which the case has already been returned (such as individual CDs or DVDs), Museum passes, and "Kill-A-Watt" kits may not be returned in the book drop. Any other item which fits through the slot without jamming it may be returned in this fashion. Please do not put any donations into the book return.

Items placed into the book return by 9:00am Monday-Saturday, or by 12:30pm on Sunday will be considered returned the previous day, or the last day that the library was open prior to the return.

Mamaroneck Library does not charge fines on items checked out of this library for days on which the library is closed or on which the library closes at 1pm.

As a courtesy the library system will try to contact patrons if an item is two weeks overdue. If an item is 60 days overdue, a lost charge will appear on the patron's account.

The computers total up existing fines from overdue items which have been returned or renewed late, plus estimated fines on items currently overdue. It will estimate how much in fines would be owed if the overdue items were to be returned that day, and add that amount to any fines already accrued. If the total of existing and estimated fines is $25.00 or more, the account will be blocked system-wide from further checkouts or renewals until the fine total has been reduced below that threshold.
