New patron packets - more info
The new patron packets have been put out at circ and are very popular. The packet contains all the information the old new patron packet contained and also a coupon for a free 3 day movie. EVERY patron who applies for a new library card will receive a bag. Even children. You may ask patrons, if they are getting more than one card, if they would like a bag for each card, or just one or two... They will let you know if they think the number of bags is excessive. You can also encourage people to take unfilled bags if it is a family or multiple children. They may not want multiple inserts which in most cases they will just throw away.
We also have empty bags for sale for the patron who just must have one. The bags are $1.00. There is an envelope in the drawer for you to put the money in. This is not considered a purchased item so use the envelope please.
If someone buys a new library card they also have to buy the bag it is not given out for free because they are not a new patron. So that is $1.00 for a card and $1.00 for the bag. The money for the card goes into the cash register and the $1.00 for the bag goes into the envelope.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask me, Pat or Lia.
