The Greenwood Public Library announcesthat during this holiday season, canned foods will be accepted as payment for overdue book fines. From Nov. 22 until Dec. 13, the Library will accept one can of food for each dollar they owe (excluding those already sent to the professional collection agency).
Library fines have always seemed more about promoting civic virtue and creating responsible patrons than about raising money. This is a creative way to get double duty out of them.
