REMEMBER! Donate “Food for Fines” Nov. 15-28!

foodforFinesIn support of National Hunger Week, Collins Memorial Library and Spirituality, Services, and Social Justice are co-sponsoring Food for Fines. Pay off your library fines with food instead of cash, November 15-28. Donate to a worthy cause AND clean up your library debt at the same time. Bring in 1 can of food and we will waive $1.00 of your library fines.
That’s right! $1 per can!


  • One – 6 ounce can or larger = $1.00 of fines. (up to $20 waived)
  • Bring cans to the Circulation Desk on the main floor of the library.
  • Only non-perishable, un-dented, and labeled cans will be accepted.
  • (Additional donations are welcome.)
  • Canned food accepted for fines on returned items only,
  • (not for replacement fees of lost items.)

All canned food will be donated to local food banks.
