Food for Fines

Collins Library 2002 Food Drive

December 4 – December 13

Pay off your library fines with food instead of cash! Clean out your cupboards before leaving for the holiday AND clean up your library debt at the same time.  

Bring in 1 can of food and we’ll waive $.50 of your library fines. That’s right!  One food item = $.50 in fines

Up to $10.00 in overdue fines will be waived for each donation from the following list of acceptable items:

canned fruits or vegetables
canned meat, fish, or poultry
canned soup (no packaged soup) 
boxed pasta, rice or dried beans
boxed cereal
peanut butter

 

Only non-perishable, undamaged, unexpired, and labeled items will be accepted.

Bring food to the Circulation Desk on the main floor of the library.

Food accepted for fines on returned items only, not for replacement fees of lost items.

All the food donated during the drive will be given to the Religious Organization Council for local food bank distribution.

Additional donations are welcome.

Questions? Ask at the Circulation Desk or call 3216.
