No Does it vary by format? Yes, see above Is there a maximum, and if so, what is it? Does that vary by format and age of patron? In most cases the fine tops out at the price of the item. For some reason we top out at $10.00 for videos/dvd's. Age of the patron is not a factor. Please respond to the list. One of our newer librarians would like to know. Thanks.
