Payment by Faster Payment System (FPS)
Q.1: Do I need to register before I can pay library fees and charges by FPS?

A.2: All fees and charges must be paid in full in a single transaction. Please ensure that your bank account or digital wallet has sufficient remaining value for making payment.
Q.3: Can I pay different types of fees and charges in a single transaction? For example, can I pay overdue fines and charges for reservation of library materials at the same time?
