[OPLINLIST] Coupon Printing.

[Jane Cucco]

At Monroeville we have a box for coupons.  Patrons have been dropping 
coupons off at the library and a volunteer cuts them out and removes 
those that are expired.  We do not download  programs for coupons on our 
computers, but patrons are welcome to any coupons in the box.

Good Luck
