Librarv mav create fines appeal board
By SHARON APPELBAUM Staff Reporter
Facing possible garnishment of their paychecks for unpaid fines, faculty members are making sure they'll have a fair method of appeals, according to the chairman of the University Senate executive committee.
Chairman Ernest Angino, professor of geology, said yesterday that while those with parking tickets can seek recourse at the Board of Traffic and appeals, the only place to do with a library fine is right back to the library.
"There's a detailed process for parking the car and enacting a parallel permit for the library, he said.
UNTIL NOW, the University had no way of collecting fines from faculty and staff. But in June, the Kansas Board of Regents voted to give the six member universities the power to either withhold employees' paychecks until
fines are paid or to automatically deduct fines from their paychecks.
Students always have been under the University's thumb because those who did not pay fines were not allowed to enroll for the next semester.
KU officials are now working to make the Regents' dictate a University decision and alarm the associate executive vice president of the policy would be ready by January.
IN ANTICIPATION of that policy, SenEx recently sent a letter to Jim Ranz, dean of libraries, calling for them to provide additional support could benefit both faculty and students.
The present procedure forces those seeking an appeal to talk to a series of library officials. Ranz said that another system was needed.
"All users should have some manner of appeal," he said. "If not, the library is placed in the position of assessing a case and if the library itself to see if the decision was right."

CLIFF HAKA, circulation librarian, is part of that appeals system and said it worked well. He added, however, "Some people feel that the system is not objective. They want an outside opinion."
who checks out a book and then goes to Europe on sabbatical, or a student who "has an accident and is in the hospital for umpletene months." Ranz said.
Haka said, "It's not like we're hard-nosed about collecting fines so we can keep the money to buy new furniture."

Ranz said that the library didn't collect fines for its own good. All fine revenues go back into the University's coffers.
"The library must exercise some
sometimes it can be faulty."
he said.
"The library has nothing to gain by leveling a fine against someone except his ill will," he said. "It's just the only way he can recover the so-called other people can use them."
Good examples are a faculty member
Ranz said the appeals board would consider complicated questions.
Ranz proposed a board composed of faculty and students who have nothing to do with the library. He said, however, that a representative from the faculty should be asked as an ex-officio member to answer questions about library policy.
THE APPEALS BOARD would decide whether to fine those people.
