    September 11-17, 2006 will be the ninth annual Food for Fines Week at the Kansas City Public Library. During the period, Library customers are encouraged to bring undamaged and unexpired boxed or canned non-perishable food items to any of the system’s ten locations to receive a one dollar per item reduction in overdue fines or lost material fees. Each donated item may also be exchanged for a free video check-out. All food will be donated to HARCMart Food Market, a free service of the Heartland AIDS Resource Council that serves over 1,000 HIV-positive clients and their families in the greater Kansas City area. Most needed items include box dinners, canned meat, canned fruit, peanut butter, pasta and pasta sauce, soups, canned fruit juice. Non-nutritional beverages such as soda and bottled water, as well any beverages in glass or plastic containers are not acceptable. Ramen noodle packets require four packages per dollar forgiven. Dented cans will not be accepted.
