Head to your library after you’ve received an email that your hold is ready for pickup. Text or call to let us know you’ve arrived and we’ll bring your items out to you. Visit Curbside Pickup for further instructions.

You can also sign up online for a library card and pick it up curbside. With your new card you can enjoy our e-library and put items on hold for Curbside Pickup. Visit Library Cards to apply.

Some things have changed since the last time we saw each other. Here are some of the safety measures we’re taking:

  • You’ll be asked to wear a mask. You’ll see staff wearing masks too.
  • We’ll all practice social distancing.
  • Curbside Pickup will continue for your convenience even after we open our doors.
  • Our buildings will be open at 75% capacity.
  • Because the amount of equipment is limited to accommodate social distancing, all libraries will be limiting computer sign-ups to one hour per person per day.
