New Times & Fees In Effect

Can you believe it's already July?

Along with all the fun things scheduled for July, the county's belt-tightening measures in reference to our library have arrived.

The Library will be closed on Friday, July 3 and Saturday, July 4 for the Independence Day holiday.

New Hours:

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday 10:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m.
Thursday and Friday 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
Saturday 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Sunday (regional branches only) 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.

New Fees:

• The daily charge for overdue materials will be 30 cents for both adult and children's materials.
• A charge of $1 will be assessed to customers who do not have their library cards with them but would like to check out materials, place holds or conduct other transactions.
• A guest pass will be required ($2) for visitors, non library card holders or those who do not have their library cards with them to use the public computers.

An additional policy change will affect some customers July 1. The library accounts of customers who owe more than $15 or who have owed any amount for more than one year will be blocked; customers will not be able to place holds, check items out, renew items or use the public computers.
