The libraries at Syracuse University, Syracuse University College of Law and the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry will once again offer a “Food for Fines” amnesty day on Thursday, Nov. 29. On that day, individuals who owe overdue fines will have $1 deducted from their fine balance for each nonperishable food item they donate. To qualify for credit, food may be brought to the circulation desk in E.S. Bird Library, any of the SU Library branches and reading rooms, or the SU Law Library from 8:30 a.m.-7 p.m., or to Moon Library from 8 a.m.-3 p.m.
All food collected will be donated to Syracuse Downtown Emergency Services for distribution to those in need across Onondaga County.
