New Policy effective July 11, 2011
In order to provide increased access to services in the
Doreen Gauthier Lighthouse Point Library
for the residents of the City,
the Library Advisory Board recommends
that a policy of 'fee for service' be instituted.
Reduction in funding from both State and Local sources
dictate available resources must be allocated
proportionately within the legal City limits.
In 1965 this library was membership driven and supported.
Membership libraries afford pride as stakeholders;
added perception of value for benefit.

All patrons both resident and non-resident will be
required to present a valid library borrower's card
to access the computers or check out materials.

New residents will be asked to make a one-time donation
of $5.00 per family for a patron's card.  Current residents will be asked
for the same $5.00 donation per family when their current card expires.
Valid ID must be presented.

Non-Residents will be assessed $50. annually per family
to have a patron's card.  Valid ID must be presented.  Payment may be
cash, check or credit card.  Students to age 14 are exempt.

Participants in the Senior Education activities will not be affected.

Other fees:
Non-residents will pay $2.00 per person for each computer session.
DVD's & VHS cassettes are $.50 each
