Food for Fines

During the week of April 19–25, we will be collecting Food for Fines to support the Tinley Park Food Pantry. For each non-perishable food item you donate, we will remove $1 in overdue fines from your account for a Tinley Park item that has been returned. We cannot excuse fines for lost or damaged items, items belonging to other libraries, or collection agency fees. No expired food items or items in glass containers. Even if you don’t have any overdue fines, you can still donate your food items at the Checkout Desk!
