Monday, March 9, 2020, By Cristina Hatem

In honor of National Orange Day on March 24 and National Libraries Week beginning April 20, Syracuse University Libraries and the School of Information Studies will host a new children’s book drive to benefit SUNY Upstate Golisano Children’s Hospital Family Resource Center.

A collection box will be available in both Bird Library and Hinds Hall from March 24 through April 22 for employees, faculty, staff, students and community members to donate new books for children, young readers and teens.

In appreciation for donations received, patrons with overdue circulation fines can reduce their fines by $5 for each new children’s book donated. Patrons interested in fine reduction should bring their book donation to the check out desk in Bird Library. Fine reductions exclude interlibrary loan and lost book fees.
