Book ’em: Libraries turn to collection agencies

Pete writes “From JSOnline we have this story of libraries getting tough with patrons.

“Overdue library books and videos won’t just prevent patrons from checking out the latest Harry Potter novel. Those overdue items might show up on their credit reports.

Among six public libraries in Wisconsin, the Waukesha Public Library has turned to a collection agency to recover items that are not returned.

The Wisconsin libraries are among the roughly 650 libraries in North America that have employed Unique Management Services Inc. as their collection agency.””
