Answer
You can pay your fines at any branch of NYPL and pay with cash, personal check or U.S. Postal money order:

Fines cannot be paid by telephone, but NYPL does offer online payment for fines in excess of $1.00, including via our main catalog:

To do so, first log into your account, select the "Fines/Fees" link on the left, and then click on "Pay Online". A new window should open up, and there you can select the fines you'd like to pay, click "Continue", and then follow the instructions from there (basically, you'll enter your address and payment information).
Here's an NYPL Web page with more information about fines:
