Curbside Pickup
Curbside pickup of materials is available as a convenience for any patron who needs it. Contact the library to schedule your pickup time and we will prepare your requested materials. Please allow adequate time for us to process your materials. If last-minute requests are made, we will do our best to accommodate timely pickups, but may not always be able to guarantee them.
Materials will be located in a receptacle behind the curbside return box on the corner of Arch Avenue and First Street. Availability of curbside pickup services may be dependent on weather.
All items are checked out to the patron prior to being placed in the curbside pickup location, and any damages or loss of materials that may occur are the responsibility of the patron.
