Library Closure Update
All physical material due dates are extended for the duration of the closure, so do not worry about getting your items back to the library before then. However, library exterior book drops remain open for returns. Please continue to check your email and follow us on Facebook and Twitter for updates.
As always, our digital library is open 24/7 and library cardholders can get access to download books, magazines, and stream movies, TV and music. For a complete listing of digital resources, visit our website.
If your library card is expired, do not hesitate to call us at 861-1110 and we will update your information to get you immediate access. Library staff are available to provide assistance from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. via telephone, email, or chat.
