The Rock Island Public Library has gone Fine Free in 2023
Late fines for Rock Island Public Library cardholders will become a thing of the past beginning with items checked out this year. Items still need to be returned and anything checked out in 2022 may still accrue late fees. The fine free policy does not include replacement costs or damaged items.
Visit the Downtown library branch, the Southwest Library branch or the soon-to-open Watts-Midtown branch for all your library needs and programs.
