The Great River Regional Library (GRRL) is repeating its “Read Down Your Fines” promotion, which gives teens and younger children the opportunity to erase fines from their library cards so that they can borrow library materials again.

 

The program will take place at all 32 branches of the Great River Regional Library from Mon., Dec. 21 through Sat., Jan. 2. For each 15 minutes of reading at the library during that period, one dollar will be waived from fines on the accounts of minors age 16 and younger. 

 

Parents will be allowed to read down the fines of their young children by reading to them in the library.  Procedures at each library may vary, and minors who want to read down their fines should speak with library staff.
