Food for Fines

Chickasha Public Library Fines Waived in December with a donation of food

Do you have fines on your Library account?  Get them waived in December by bringing in a non-perishable food item to donate to the Food Pantry.  “The end of the year is a great time to get accounts cleared for a fresh start for the new year.  I want customers to be able to check out Library books.  This is a great way for customers to get fines waived and help the local Food Pantry too.”   The books must be turned in to the Library for the fines to be waived, perhaps you’ve already done that, or perhaps you can do that now, and bring in a non-perishable food item, quantity doesn’t matter.  All food is donated to the local Food Pantry.  This program covers only overdue fines not replacement fees for lost or damaged books.  Donations for the Food Pantry are accepted and encouraged even if you don’t have fines.  In addition to the much-needed food, many overdue books come home to the Library.  Not having to repurchase popular titles means the Library can buy more new books.  The program runs from December 1^st – December 31^st.    If you have questions, call the Library at 222-6075.
