March is fine free, fine forgiveness month at the library:
Owe fines at the library? March is fine free and fine forgiveness month at the library.
During March, the library will forgive outstanding overdue, damaged, or lost fines in any amount on eligible items in exchange for varying amounts of donated nonperishable food or pet supplies. Fines associated with laptops, iPads, electronics, or video games are not eligible for the program.
Any person who owes money to the library for anything except ineligible items can bring in donations according to a suggested donation schedule to clear their library account and once again enjoy library services. The library will also forgive fines for any overdue items (except ineligible items) returned in good condition in March, with no donations required.
Donated items will benefit local food banks and animal rescue organizations.
For full details, visit your local Lafourche Parish Public Library branch.
