CHANGES COMING AT THE LIBRARY!

We’re almost ready! Your new Shell Point library card will be sent to you before the end of January. Because we have upgraded the entire circulation process, you will need this card to check out items from the main Library beginning January 30. After we’ve made the change-over, you’ll see computers, scanners, and receipt printers on the circulation desks, instead of sign-out cards and pockets. All YOU need to do is bring your library card with you.

But, with this great improvement, much will not change – you’ll still see our friendly, helpful resident volunteers ready to help you find and check out your items. The card catalog and the printed DVD, Audio, and CD catalogs remain for your convenience. And of course, our outstanding collection of the latest in books, DVDs and audio books will continue to be constantly updated.

Please note: the Library will close on Saturday and Sunday, January 28 and 29, to allow us to make the conversion to the new system.
