While connecting people with books and information is the core of what we do as a hub of learning and literacy in our community, we also offer various services to help people find jobs and advance in their careers.
The updated library catalog is live! You can now search the collection, place holds, renew items, and manage your account. The catalog is also accessible by visiting our website homepage. If you have the old catalog saved or bookmarked, make sure to update it so you can continue to access library materials.
Whether you’re looking to try something totally new, meet friends, or just find a cool place to hang out, our teen summer programs have something for everyone. From hands-on activities and gaming events to art workshops and a BINGO Bash, this summer lineup will let you explore your interests while making fun memories.
The library catalog and account experience will be getting a refresh. The updated experience will make it easier to search, discover, and manage your library account. There may be temporary service interruptions during the transition in August. We’ll keep you informed as the update progresses.
