Does anyone have any recommendations for a policy that could be put in place to help protect us from this issue? We already have one regarding minor accounts since they are tied to the parent/guardian that set up the account and/or any other minors who are under the same parent/guardian. Once one account reaches our fine/fee limit, all accounts that are tied to it receive a pop-up and may be blocked until the overdue account it brought up to date. Is it acceptable to tie adult accounts together so once our fine/fee limit is reached it blocks all adult accounts in the household as well? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century","serif"'>Thanks, <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:Vivaldi'>Ms. TJ Smith<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century","serif"'>Ms. TJ Smith<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century","serif"'>Library Director<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century","serif"'>Sherman Township Library<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century","serif"'>(989) 644-5131<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Century","serif"'>shermandirector@winntel.net<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
