"Food For Fines" During July

June 23, 2009

Meriden Public Library will hold a "Food for Fines" month beginning Wednesday, July 1 through Friday, July 31. If you are returning late items, bring in at least one non-perishable food item for each item you are returning late. As of July 1, if you owe more than $5.00 to the library for lost/damaged items or overdue fines, your computer and borrowing privileges will be suspended until your account has been paid down.

If you have overdue fines on your account already, these can also be "paid" with a non-perishable item. Sorry, but food donations do not cover lost or damaged library materials. Bring in those long overdue DVD's, cd's, books, etc. and clear up those fines. Borrowers must visit the Circulation Desk in person to take advantage of this opportunity. All food collected will be delivered to local food pantries. Food items most needed are tuna, dry milk, boxed pasta products, tomato items, juices, and cereals.

Contact the Meriden Library at (203) 238-2344 or (203) 630-6349 if you have questions.
