Service Fees and Fines
PURPOSE
To standardize and identify the fees to be charged by all divisions of the State Library to patrons for various services and fines.
SCOPE
This policy applies to all divisions of the Indiana State Library and is to be followed by all Library staff.
STATEMENT OF POLICY
Authority is granted to the Indiana State Library under IC 4-23-7.1-33, 34 and 35 to collect certain fines and service fees which will be deposited into a dedicated fund titled the State Library Publications Fund.
The following fines and fees have been established with approval of this policy:
Photocopies:
1-10 copies $2.50

71-80 copies $35.00
$5.00 for each additional 10 copies
Color Photocopies $1.00 per page
The fees for photocopying are to be charged when library staff are making and sending copies, and not when patrons are making copies for themselves or in the library.
Indiana State Government employees receive the first 29 black and white copies and the first 3 color copies free. If more copies are needed then begin with the above Photocopy cost chart. Color copies will be $1.00 for state employees, also, after the initial 3 copies.
Indiana�s public libraries receive the first 99 black and white and 25 color copies free, if it is information for their library that will remain in their library. All other types of Indiana libraries follow the above fee chart.
All patrons, including state employees, follow the fee structure of the items following:
CD-R $2.00
CD Scans $5.00 per scan
Census Bureau Map $5.00
Fax Charge In State $2.50

(After materials are faxed, originals are mailed to the patron)
Items Returned Late $ .25 per day per item
Microform to Paper Same as Photocopies Above
Microfiche to Microfiche copy $2.50
Microfilm Roll to Microfilm Roll copy (Done by ICPR) $40.00
The fees for photocopying are to be charged when library staff are making and sending copies, and not when patrons are making copies for themselves or in the library.
Lost Library Items:
Patrons will be charged actual replacement cost, including postage, and processing fees for all items, including microfilm. This includes items that have been interlibrary loaned.
Fines will be assessed for overdue materials. Materials may be renewed by the patron for an additional thirty (30) days if the item is not overdue. After the first renewal the item must be returned or fines will be charged. Patrons accruing unpaid fines of more than $10.00 may have borrowing and service request privileges revoked, until such time that fees are paid.
These fees are to be charged when library staff are making and sending copies and not when patrons are making copies for themselves.
