CLEARWATER, Florida - We donīt want to put people in jail, said Clearwater Public Library director John Szabo, but that is exactly what his library is doing. Case in point: Beverly Goldman, who is seven months pregnant, said she had changed addresses and didnīt receive a single notice from the library or the courts about overdue books. That is until two detectives showed up to give her a little time in the cooler. The same thing happened to Jeremy Christian Soder, 19, who thought he could get away with $80 worth of reference materials. His story sounds a little different from behind iron bars. This is not something the library enjoys doing or even wants to do, Szabo said. But the message is out in Clearwater. Bring back those library books.
