November is Food For Fines Month!

From November 1st to 30th, Homer Library patrons can pay off library fines with food instead of cash. Bring in one non-perishable food item and we'll waive $1 off existing fines or returned overdues.

Up to $20 in overdue fines will be waived for each donation from the following list of acceptable items:

+ Canned fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, or poultry

+ Canned soup (no packaged soup)

+ Boxes of cereal, pasta, rice, or dried beans

+ Jars of peanut butter or jelly

Offer valid only during the month of November. Only non-perishable, undamaged, unexpired, and labeled items will be accepted. Additional donations are welcome. All donated food will be given to local food banks for distribution. Thank you for your support!
