DeKalb library notices going paperless

Notices about overdue or on-hold items at the DeKalb County Public Library will no longer be sent through the mail.

As of March 1, the library system began notifying patrons only via e-mail or phone calls. Going paperless is expected to save the system more than $30,000 on postal costs a year.

Patrons are encouraged to check with library staff or online, to make sure their accounts are up to date with the correct contact information.

More information is available on the library system Web site, www.dekalblibrary.org.
