[Genealib] Payments

[Dottie Demarest]

Dusty, we usually don't send the material until we are paid. We haven't had
a problem yet with bouncing checks - knock wood!

Sincerely,

We charge a small fee for copying and mailing requests.  In the last year we
have had almost every request answered from the mail, where the patron said
"bill me," remain unpaid.  We have also had a number of out-of-state checks
used to pay this fee, bounce.
I am curious about other libraries -- Is this a trend elsewhere?
