Between September 22 and October 31, children and teens who have fines on their library cards can ask to have them waived.
If you are a child or teen who owes fines, has long overdue material, or has lost library material, you can visit any Brooklyn Public Library location and ask for the fines to be waived.
For those who have long overdue material, we ask that you return them to any customer service desk for the fines to be waived.
