Until the end of December, people can lower their library fines and help those in need in Butler County.

For every non-perishable food item a person brings to any Lane Library location, the library will take $1 off of the person’s library fines.

Sealed, non-expired and non-perishable food items must be brought to the Circulation Desk in order to have fines decreased.

Donations will be distributed through Shared Harvest and the Oxford Community Choice Pantry.

Lane Library locations:

  • Hamilton, 300 N. Third St.
