Library Debt Got You Down?

If you owe the city a pretty penny in library fines, it might behoove you to enter the Tribune's Library Amnesty contest in honor of its literary insert's one-year anniversary. Five winners will get $100 towards library fines as well as a one-year digital subscription to the Printers Row Journal, which regularly goes for $29.

The final stretch for entries is upon us with just a few days before the April 1 deadline. Entering is simple; just email your explanation of 50 words or less to printersrow@tribune.com, including the phrase "Library Amnesty" in the subject line. Be sure to let them know how much you owe and at which libraries you're in the red.

The cost-benefit analysis seems promising, so why not give it a shot?
