Food for Fines
November 24, 2008
Heads up, everybody!
The week following Thanksgiving break, December 1 – 5, Catholic University Library will initiate a Food for Fines amnesty intended to raise non-perishable food to donate to those in need. Patrons
with library fines from CUA libraries (only) will be able to bring in
non-perishable food items to the Mullen library circulation desk. Patrons’ fines will be forgiven $1 for every item they present to the library. In conjunction with the Campus Ministry, all food gathered will be donated to So Others Might Eat.
Think about it: Most canned goods cost less than $1 — so save some cash before the holidays, help others, and get those library fines cleaned up!
One more reason to love WorldCat

Working on a research paper? Want to search for sources while letting the Internet Gods create your stylized bibliography for you ? Check out the Build a Bibliography link on WorldCat. While you search for books, you can create a list and get citations in five common formats. (You can even export your bibliography to EndNote or RefWorks, if you like.)
Also, check out my post for more about how to exploit WorldCat.
