Aurora Public Library 'Food for Fines' drive fundraises for local food banks

AURORA, Ill. (WLS) -- The Aurora Public Library is turning overdue books into a boon for local food banks.

The library's "Food for Fines" drive runs the entire month of November.

For each donated item, the library will knock $1 off a person's bill up to $5.

Breakfast cereals are needed the most, but they will accept all non-perishable items.
