Dundee Libraries

I am a great supporter of Dundee's libraries. The Central Library is the most popular in Scotland. Thursday's Evening Telegraph pointed out that £15,800 out of £20,032 library fines were paid last year. I am clear that people who use Dundee's libraries should act responsibly and return the books they borrow on time or pay the fine. However, I am clear that the fine for late library books is a deterrent and I don't think that there is a need for a bigger stick.
