Food for Fines
From now until December 30, YPL is accepting non-perishable food items in lieu of fines. One dollar in fines will be forgiven, up to $10, for each usable item. Food collected will be donated to the Yarmouth Food Pantry. (The Pantry will not accept items that are within three months of their sell-by date). This only applies to Yarmouth Port Library's overdue items and does not apply to missing or billed materials. You do not need to owe a fine to donate! Thank you! Library Value Calculator How valuable is your local library? What is it worth to you? How much would you pay out-of-pocket if the library didn't exist, or if these services and resources weren't available at no cost? Take a moment and reflect on your library use over the past month. Click on the link below and then plug those numbers into the form. You might be surprised at how valuable the Yarmouth Port Library is to you and the community! The calculator was created by the Massachusetts Library Association. ala.org/advocacy/advleg/advocacyuniversity/toolkit/makingthecase/library_calculator ``````````````````````````` 
2018 Membership Campaign Please consider a donation to YPL! Thank you to those who have already donated to the 2018 Membership Campaign, an extremely important source of operating funds. Because of you, our Library, founded in 1866, remains a vital presence in Yarmouth Port, still serving its public. It is important to note that YPL is a privately funded library and your donations are extremely important. (Click here for further information on the Campaign and ways to donate.) Every donation from our patrons helps us continue to provide library services and monthly programs to the public, and to maintain our unique old building. We hope you will think about what the Yarmouth Port Library means to you and to the community at large—and what Yarmouth Port would be without it—when you consider donating in future years.
