Food for Overdue Fines coming to Prince Rupert Library

For tardy book returners in Prince Rupert, a one month amnesty is about to arrive at the Prince Rupert Library and all it will require of you is a donation of some non perishable food.

The project which will see the canned and packaged goods donated to the local Food Bank kicks off on Tuesday, December 3rd and will run through the Holiday season, coming to an end on Sunday, January 5th, 2014.

For each non-perishable item that is brought in to the Library, they will deduct 2 dollars off of any overdue fines.

For those that aren't sure if they have any overdue fines, you can contact the library at 250-627-1345.

The program is limited to only overdue library fines and does not include any other library fees that may be in place.

Of course, regular visitors to the library who keep their accounts in good standing, can still take part in the food bank project.

Rupertites who wish to participate can lend a hand over the holidays  by bringing in non-perishable goods during the library's hours of operation.
