LIMITED SERVICES OUTSIDE OF THE LIBRARY BUILDINGS:  

  • Walk-up, no contact, pick-up for items that were requested online (24 hours a day with your library card), by calling your branch, or using our general email: [email protected].
  • Walk-up, no contact returns. The return boxes will be sealed off so all books can be dropped off  at the library front entrance during operating hours. They will be quarantined for 72 hours.
  • Special “curbside” service hours for vulnerable, handicapped or high risk patrons will occur Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, & Friday  from 8 – 9 am.
  • Walk-up, no contact & no cost copies up to 10 copies.
