<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Implement a policy/procedure such that when a reciprocal borrower fails to return library material, the borrower's home library pays the replacement cost of the item(s) directly to us, and then seek
reimbursement from the patron (as happens with ILL). </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><br>
