Our bookdrops are still open for you to return items if you are finished with them. Please do not attempt to hand items to be returned to staff, place everything in the designated drops.

We thank you in advance for your patience as we continue to navigate the ongoing health crisis.
Please note that even after you have returned items, you may still see them checked out to your account for a few days. At this time we are placing returned items into quarantine for at least three (3) days before discharging. Any fines/overdues accumulated during the quarantine period are being automatically waived once the item is discharged from quarantine. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call.
We are still not accepting any book donations at this time.
