Our fee is $1.50 for the first page and .50 every page after that. No charge for the cover sheet. It is $1.00 a page to receive.

So many great responses! To clarify the max is from a fee perspective (ex: $1/page with a max fee of $10) and not # of pages sent/received. I'm not sure my email was quite clear in that regard ;)

I will summarize responses for the list. 
Thanks again!
Andrea

Subject: [Michlib-l] Fax charges - sending/receiving
 
Curious what you all are charging for patron faxes (not interested in self-service fax machines, only fees for your staff to be involved in the faxing). 
Sending, per page - do you have a max fee/fax?
Receiving, per page - do you have a max fee/fax?

We are seeing quite a few courts document related faxes that are 20+ pages and the fee for those faxes seems out of line with the amount of work our staff are putting into the sending of them. We're looking at adding a max fee/fax and I'm curious as to what other libraries are doing regarding fees for this service. 

Many thanks!
Andrea
