The Owen Sound & North Grey Union Public Library is pleased to announce our Food for Fines initiative.

Help out our local food bank by dropping off non-perishable food items at the Library from Friday, November 13 until Friday, November 27. The Library will reduce your library fines by $2 for each non-perishable food item donated at the Public Services Desk or the Youth Services Desk during this time.

All donated food will be delivered to the Owen Sound Salvation Army Food Bank. The agency estimates that they are currently serving about 700 people a month. Most needed items include pasta sauce, canned fruit, Kraft Dinner, cereals and juice. For more information, contact the Library at 519-376-6623 ext. 0
