Library By Mail


PLEASE NOTE: LIBRARY BY MAIL HAS BEEN SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

 

Library By Mail is a free service provided by the library that delivers material from our collections straight to your door at no cost to you.  Request items for “Mail Delivery” from our catalog and they will be mailed to your address as they become available. If we have an email on record for your account, you will receive a U.S.P.S. tracking number in an email message when your package is sent. When you have finished, place the item or items in the mailbag and use our return postage card to have it delivered back to the library for free.

Late fees do apply, so be sure to renew your items online.  Below are additional details about using this service:
