Pay Off Library Fines with Canned Food
November 25 - December 31

The holidays are coming, and the Escondido Public Library is getting into the giving spirit with its annual Food for Fines program. Food for Fines offers patrons the opportunity to clear up to $20.00 in fines from Library accounts by donating non-perishable, nutritious, pre-packaged food. Each food item counts as $1.00 toward reducing fines. The food is donated to Escondido's Interfaith Community Services and distributed to local needy families.
All donations must be given at the Customer Service Desk. Keep an eye out for the colorful tracker in the lobby, which will show the amount of food donated throughout the program. Last year, the Library donated 1,590 pounds of food.
The Escondido Public Library is located at 239 S. Kalmia Street, Escondido.
