VISITORS to libraries in Darlington who face paying fines on late books will be let off this week.
Readers at the town's Crown Street, Cockerton and mobile libraries can take advantage of the library fines amnesty.
The amnesty, which runs until Saturday, aims to encourage lenders to return overdue books and help the libraries get more books back into circulation.

A council spokeswoman said that in the first three days of the amnesty, library staff had seen a steady flow of lenders returning books
