Mine doesn’t, I was surprised when they phased it out but apparently it increased use a ton.

No, my local public library removed fines a few years ago and added auto-renewal in its place. You get three renewals and then another three-week grace period before they even send you a polite letter that says they might declare it lost if you don't return it.
