I am Shirley Pirkle, librarian at Gonzales Junior High School in Gonzales, Texas. When we automated last year we decided not to charge fines except for damaged books or defaced barcodes. Students here can not check out books if they have a late book. For the most part the books are coming in just as well as they did last year. The fines in the past did not help to get books in, so we decided not to worry about the hassle of fines. It is working out fine. You might try doing without fines. Good luck.
