NEW Book Locker: We now offer a Book Locker for book pick-ups that patrons can access after-hours. Our library already offers a book drop box, but our new Book Locker will allow patrons to get the books they want when they want them! The Book Locker is located outside at the back of the library (near the Children's Library entrance). Simply contact us and we will gather your requested books and have them ready for you that day!
