Food for Fines - This week only!

Here at the Graham Room (along with the rest of the library), we are celebrating National Library Week by participating in our annual Food for Fines program.  This week only (April 9th - April 14th), you can get rid of your fines at the library by donating a non-perishable food item which will be given to WHEAT, the local food pantry.  This is how it works:

For each item you owe fines on, bring in one non-perishable good.  The packaging may be canned, plastic, or boxed.  No glass, dented, leaking, broken, or expired items will be accepted.

Regardless of the dollar amount, the policy is one food item per library item overdue.  Food for fines is only applicable to library items that have been returned.  Food may not be exchanged for relieving fines for replacement, damaged, or still-checked-out library materials.

If you do not owe fines but would like to help those in need, you can bring your food items into any library branch location.
