The counterclaim that is fair is:
"Late fees help fund library programs and encourage borrowers to be responsible with their books."
This counterclaim presents a logical argument against the initial claim by highlighting the financial support that late fees provide for library programs and addressing borrower responsibility, making it a valid point of contention.
