The Lincoln Public Library Board has approved an annual non-resident fee of $35 for St. Catharines and Grimsby residents beginning January 1, 2009.

Residents of Grimsby and St. Catharines are encouraged to contact their ibraries to reconsider reciprocal borrowing with Lincoln.

Residents of West Lincoln will continue to receive free library privileges under a reciprocal borrowing agreement.
