Donate food and reduce library fines
Story by James Hill
The 51°µÍø Library is again accepting “Food for Fines” to support AS51°µÍø canteens and food nooks during winter term. Food donations are also accepted.
Here’s how it works.
- For every food item donated, fines will be reduced by $4.
- Food item must weigh at least six ounces, and be clearly labeled, unopened, undamaged, and unexpired.
- Applies to all current 51°µÍø Library overdue fines.
- Cannot be used for previously paid fines, lost items, charges turned over to collection, ILL or Summit fines.
- All food will be donated to the campus AS51°µÍø Canteen & Food Nook programs to help fellow students.
Are you a student in need of food assistance? Please contact or visit the AS51°µÍø food program on your campus.For location to donate, visit the project’s webpage for more details.
