<p>Actually what happens without fines is that items get returned at the same rate as in libraries with fines. The down side might be that the returns come in a bit later, it is not that the items aren't returned. The major up side is the reduction of stress
on staff. Yes, there has been research done on this. I am, however, unable to point anyone to the research today but probably could later in the week. Oh, the research is on return rates and not staff stress levels. That is just a comment from my personal
experience.<o:p></o:p></p>
