Hopefully that’s $7 to pick up/return an entire load of held books, not just one. I know when I was a kid my library card was constantly maxed out on how many books I could have out simultaneously, I think like 20 or 30? We’d go to the library pretty much weekly and bring back ones I’d read, along with the occasional book I’d decided to not finish, or ones I’d just never started on, and I’d get about that many new-to-me ones out.
Thank you so much for your reply and interest. There are libraries that allows you to put in hold for up to 50 books depending on the availability of books. There are two types of orders. One is just a pick up from library and other is pick/drop. Yes, our customer need to let us know the quantities of books being returned to library.
I have 4 kids under the age of six. So we pretty much put alot of books on hold every week. Utilizing our tax money!
We are currently working on reducing the price to make it more affordable for everyone.
I can mail a book across the country for much less. Sure it's probably at a loss to the USPS z but I should be able to do a local delivery or pickup for a fraction of that esp if you could somehow tie in the local post office.
We have three different orders customers can put in. Pickup only, pickup/return and return only. Each order is 6.50 for delivery.

Our service is for those who are interest in print media. Secondly, our tax money goes into our local libraries so might as well utilize it. :)
