Book returns
The library's book returns in the parking lots are now open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All due dates have currently been extended until March 31, 2021, though we encourage returns earlier to get more materials out to the community. There are no fines accrued between March 15, 2020 to March 31, 2021 at 5 p.m.
Returned items will remain on your account for a minimum of seven days due to the need to quarantine all library materials upon their return. Once the materials can be processed, they will be removed from your account and returned to circulation.
