Library needs video drop off (to Warwick Public Library feedback)

I noticed last night that a video tape I borrowed from the

    Warwick Public Library -  Alfred Hitchcock's " Rebecca " - was due

    back on Nov.29 , Sunday. When I went there to return the tape ( and other

    audio-visualtapes )  - around 10 o'clock in the morning - I found the

    library closed. But there was a book deposit box. At other libraries

    they have a separate area for the audio-visual material. I observed

    no such " convenience " at the multi- million dollar renovated Warwick

    Public library.

           This is rather brainless considering that they charge $2.00 per

    day for each  video tape overdue . Unless it is OK to use the book

    deposit box for tapes, the library is being less than courteous to

    its patrons.

          Not wanting to pay the ridiculous fine , I put " Rebecca " and

    the musical " Oliver " and an audio tape " The Fabulous Forties " into

    the book deposit box.

             P.S.   Also unlike every other major library in the state -even

    South Providence branch libraries - the Warwick Public Library, under


    the astute supervision of Doug Pearce, - still block E- mail service!
