For the past sixteen years, the AU Library has partnered with the AU community to provide food for those in need, while giving people a break on their library fines. This year, we are once again working with the Capital Area Food Bank to bring food to hungry kids right here in DC through their Kids Caf\u00e9 program. You can learn more about the Capital Area Food bank and its mission and initiatives through their website: <\/span>CapitalAreaFoodBank.org<\/a>.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Food for Fines will run from November 28th through December 22nd. Please see below for a list of accepted food. Only food from the list will be accepted, and you can only pay off up to $20.00 of your AU fines with food donations. If you have questions or comments, please contact the borrowing desk at 202-885-3221 or circulation@american.edu<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
