How flexible is your library with forgiveness?

Have you ever had anyone cause a political scene?

I would forgive this without thinking about it. The patron’s partner sounds abusive. Filing a police report could be dangerous to the patron’s wellbeing.

In an attempt to describe the situation with as few potentially recognizable details as possible, I do see why many people suspect abuse. That's not the situation. Sorry for alarming people. I realize I will continue getting downvoted because this is the internet, and we are all experts on everything (this isn't aimed directly at you). This is a woman with hurt feelings over a breakup who is responding immaturely. It's an unhealthy response, but not serious enough to report to the police as one redditor insisted I must. He made an error in judgment by checking a couple items out for her on a library visit instead of suggesting she get a card. It's a small town. If I start reporting all of the emotionally immature responses I see dating people make as serious abuse cases, I'm not going to have any patrons or friends. Thank you to those who responded. Sorry for triggering some of you. I have dated an emotionally and physically abusive person before, so I do understand. I agree that this behavior - accompanied by other problematic behaviors - would indicate abuse. But there are no other red flags I am aware of here. I'm going back to lurking because this has been the best reminder of why I don't post (again, not directed at the person I'm replying to).

I've worked at libraries that have had anywhere from a zero forgiveness policy to up to 3 waives in the patrons account/record history if a patron believes they are being unfairly charged.

The police report makes sense for waiving fines. Requests for forgiveness like this are pretty infrequent for my library. We haven't required proof in the past. It's a small town, and things like house fires quickly become public knowledge. Official reports have never seemed necessary. I don't know what proof would look like in this case. I'll keep thinking about it.

I do IT at my library. I’ve always made it a point to buy computers with no built in speakers. Just a a headphone jack. If they want sound, they use the headphones.

Oh my gosh. I never considered that as a possibility. I'm going to request this for all future computer purchases. Thank you
