No way! I feel like usually the kid will be extra careful, since they don't want to have *two* fines on their record. And, as I think Marc McPhee pointed out, if a kid really needs a book, a kid is going to get that book, and it's better if they do it the right way, no? I love all of your ideas for getting stuff back! I'm totally gonna start wheelin' and dealin'. I’ve had a couple kids come in, too, who think they get to avoid checking out a book due to overdues.
