Children’s Book for Library Fines 2009
Do you have any unpaid library fines? This year you can clear that fine and help a local child have a better holiday season.
From now until Thursday December 17, 2009, you can donate new children’s books in lieu of library fines you may owe the Claire T. Carney Library. The value of these NEW BOOKS should be equivalent to the fine. There will be a limit of 4 fines per person. This does not apply to replacement fees for lost materials.
The children’s books that you donate must be new and in excellent condition. We will also accept NEW children’s hats, mittens, gloves and scarves in addition to books. A library supervisor will make the final determination on whether an item is acceptable in lieu of the library fine.
Even if you do not have a library fine, we will gladly accept your donations to help local children. All items should be brought to the Circulation Desk on the 1st floor of the library.
This is a collaboration between the Claire T. Carney Library and the UMass Dartmouth Department of Public Safety.
