Food bank pantries around Douglas County are empty. In an effort to help restock the shelves, all Douglas County Libraries including the bookmobile will waive library fines in exchange for non-perishable food items from Monday, September 22 until Monday, October 20. This offer does not include charges related to lost or damaged items.
Food banks are especially in need of canned meats, pasta, rice, and boxed dinners. The libraries will collect the food and then deliver it to the food bank in their area. You may drop off the food at the Bookmobile or any of the following branches of Douglas County Libraries:
- Parker Library (10851 South Crossroads Drive)
