Children's Books, ESL Materials to Get Late Fines at Seattle Libraries
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
The Seattle Public Library Board of Trustees voted unanimously last week to impose overdue fines on previously exempt children's books and English-as-a-second-language materials, charge a $5 fee for interlibrary loans, and limit the number of materials a user can check out and place holds on. University of Washington student Alice Tsoi told the board the changes would disproportionately affect the people that rely most on the library — immigrants and the homebound.
Your Web site has been very important in the way that I have changed my teaching style. You have research that has impacted the way that I work with
my students and others in my school.
