Lost Book Campaign (No Cash Payments for Lost Books but Donations)

If you lost a book, use this campaign to pay your $10 fine or donate a pre-approved book title.  If you want to help replace lost books, make a donation of $10 or more with Permabound Book Boosters.   If you missed our 1000 Title Book Drive, here is a second chance.  Fee and donations benefit the purchase of books for the media center.
