Director outlines billing plan for adjacent‑county nonresident circulation under state statute

Director Nizzie Bell described how the library seeks reimbursement from adjacent counties for nonresident circulation under state statute. "As part of chapter 43 in the state statutes, at least 70% of nonresident borrowing can be reimbursed or should be reimbursed from the counties that those residents live in," Bell said, noting the practice commonly routes billing to county boards for Green Lake, Winnebago and Dodge counties in Ripon’s service area.
