Once again, Missoula Public Library partners with the Missoula Food Bank & Community Center for “Food for Fines” from December 2nd through December 8th. Patrons may bring nonperishable food items to have your overdue fines forgiven. Please note that donations are only applicable to overdue fines, and cannot be used for fines related to lost or damaged items or ILL fines. The Missoula Food Bank & Community Center is specifically looking for the following foods: Canned meats (tuna, chicken or salmon), canned and boxed meals (soups, chili, stew, macaroni and cheese), canned or dried beans and peas, pasta, rice, cereal, canned fruit, baby food, and baby formula. In order to ensure food safety, the Food Bank cannot accept the following items: homemade items, noncommercial canned or packaged items, alcoholic beverages, or drink mixes, open or used items and rusty or unlabeled cans. Please bring donations to the Accounts Desk during library hours of operation. For further information, call us at 721-BOOK (2665).
