Grace periods have been extended from 0 days to 7 days, and 3 days to 8 days. This change
is in effect today, September 16th. Change in grace period fine accrual does not impact
fine-free circulation rules. For a complete explanation of this grace period extension,
see the news post, Grace Period Update - 7
days<https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2020-09/81046>46>.
Libraries who have delayed return to pre-COVID circulation rules, due to fine accrual
while items are in quarantine, may now consider this grace period extension when
determining circulation policies for your library. As always, if you wish to review or
change any policies, submit a support ticket and we will walk through your policies and
adjust as needed.
Additional reminder: Restarting hold notifications are still an opt-in. If you have not
yet restarted those notifications and wish to, review your Library Services
