Amnesty Month STARTS
Amnesty Month STARTS
N/A
April 3, 2022
In celebration of National Library Week, Vail Public Library will again offer Amnesty Month from April 3 - 30.This is an effort to recover overdue library materials by offering a “fine free” month. We encourage the return of needed library materials and promote increased use of the library. While some materials are simply lost, a great many are still in the hands of the patrons who checked them out. With a "no questions asked" amnesty period, the embarrassment and fear of paying large fines as obstacles to the return of long-overdue materials will be removed.
The amnesty does not include overdue fines still on record from previously returned materials, nor does it include fines for lost and/or damaged items.

National Library Week is an annual celebration highlighting the valuable role libraries, librarians, and library workers play in transforming lives and strengthening our communities.The theme for this year’s National Library Week is “Connect with Your Library”, which promotes the idea that libraries are places to get connected to technology by using broadband, computers, and other resources. Libraries also offer opportunities to connect with media, programs, ideas, and classes, in addition to books. Most importantly, libraries also connect communities to each other.
This week, Vail Public Library (VPL) encourages all community members to visit their library in person or online to explore and access services and programs. VPL offers a wide array of programs and resources that are available in person or from the comfort of homes, such as Storytime’s, music concerts, digital items and databases, virtual book discussions, and virtual Yoga.
