We’ve reached the final days of our Food for Fines initiative! The St. Johns County Public Library System is offering patrons a way to lower or eliminate library fines, while providing much needed assistance to the Health and Human Services Food Pantry through the “Food for Fines” program. This program will run from November 16 through December 21. A donation of one non-perishable, unexpired food item or pet supply item will remove $1 of fines from a patron’s library record. This fine-reduction program applies only to overdue fines and patrons may bring in as many items as needed to reduce overdue fines. Fees related to damaged or lost items are not included in the Food for Fines program. Food donations and pet supplies/food may be dropped off at any St. Johns County Library branch or with one of our Bookmobiles.
