White Pine County Library continues fine-forgiveness program and plans July circulation incentive
Summary
Director Lori Romero reported an ongoing fine-forgiveness effort covered by the Bristlecone newspaper and described a July circulation incentive where patrons may deposit checkout receipts for a chance to win a $100 gift card; timeframe for the drawing is to be determined.
Library Director Lori Romero updated the board on two circulation initiatives: an ongoing fine-forgiveness program and a new receipt-based drawing to boost circulation. The minutes note a May 29, 2026 Bristlecone newspaper article about the fine forgiveness event, which lets patrons write a short paragraph on "How the library has impacted their life" to clear fines from their accounts.
Romero also said that starting in July patrons will be able to deposit checkout receipts in a drum for a drawing to win a $100 gift card; the minutes state the time span for deposits before the drawing is yet to be determined. Trustees received the update; no formal action was recorded.
