RE: [IUG] Changing Amount Charged for Fines

["Fran Juergensmeyer" <Fran dot Juergensmeyer at waukeganpl dot info>]

I just talked with someone on the Help Desk about this issue a few days
ago.  Our Board has made changes to the operating policy, including
changes to overdue fines and the number of renewals permitted on some
items.  I was told that neither of those changes would require a new
loan rule.  (Unfortunately, I don't have the name of that person.)

Fortunately, our changes do not go into affect until September 1, so I
have not implemented them yet.  I just opened a call with III to
double-check this.

Thanks for the warning!
