Craft of the Month

Thanks to inspiration from our friends at Everett Public Library, we are happy to announce our new Craft of the Month Program for adults and teens! Kits will include directions and supplies to create a craft.

October's craft is paperback pumpkins where you can use an old book to create a 3-D pumpkin. If you’re interested in a kit, simply place a hold on a kit in our online catalog by searching “Craft of the Month Kit”, and we will notify you when it is ready for pickup.

Curbside Pickup is Now Contact Free!

We are now offering 100% contact free library material curbside pickup! Just park in one of the designated curbside spaces in front of the library, pop your trunk, and then call the curbside pickup phone number that is on the sign. Please leave your windows up and have your picture ID ready in the driver's side window so library staff can verify your identity. Library staff will place your materials in your trunk.

Q: Why are we making this change?

A: To ensure the safety of library staff and patrons during curbside pickup transactions.

Q: Can I still ask a question during curbside pickup?

A: Of course! Just make sure you are wearing a mask please.

Thank you for your continued support and patience as we strive to provide the best possible service during this challenging time.
