During the month of December the library will forgive fines for patrons who bring in non-perishable food items for donation to the Food Bank for Monterey County. Take advantage of the opportunity to clear your fines and help a worthy cause, all at once.

One can of food or 4 bags of ramen = $1 forgiven in fines. These food items are especially needed:

• Canned meats or fish
• Chili
• Soups or stews
• Fruits or vegetables
• Juices
• Peanut butter
• Boxed macaroni and cheese
• Dry cereal or oatmeal
• Rice and pasta

No items in glass containers and no outdated food please.
