NORWICH – Many of us make resolutions this time of year. Guernsey Memorial Library wants to help you to turn over that new leaf in 2018. For the entire month of January, the library will accept donations of nonperishable pet or human food or other items in forgiveness of book fines.

You’ll start off the New Year with a clean slate and be able to take advantage of all of the library’s great services and you’ll help Roots and Wings or the Chenango SPCA at the same time.

Roots and Wings will benefit from any donated items like peanut butter, tuna, spaghetti sauce, cereal, and canned fruits and vegetables. Toiletries such as toilet paper and larger size diapers are also desperately needed by many. The Chenango SPCA will benefit from donated pet items like dog and cat food, cat litter, and cleaning products like bleach and Pine Sol.
