Cleveland Public Library going fine-free after 150 years

The Cleveland Public Library is ending fines for overdue materials.

That announcement was made during a “State of the Library” address by executive director Felton Thomas Jr. at the City Club of Cleveland on Wednesday, Feb. 27.

Thomas also laid out plans for a year-long sesquicentennial celebration that, he said, “focuses on places, programs and people.”
