Through the month of November, patrons can help feed our community while paying off their library fines. The Penn Libraries are sponsoring a food drive and fine amnesty program to benefit Philabundance. For each food item donated, $1 will be credited towards a patron's account, up to a maximum of $20. Please note that credit cannot be applied to lost book replacement fees.
