Library's Food for Fines program offered to kids
During December, children with overdue fines at Bud Werner Memorial Library can "pay" off their fines while helping local families in need by participating in the library's Food for Fines Program. For every item of non-perishable food children bring in to the library, the library will cancel about $1 of their overdue fines. All food will be donated to LIFT-UP Food Bank. The program is only open to ages 18 and younger.
