Library Card Application

We ask that all Library users have a Library Card Application on file to ensure that we have your current contact information. You will find the link to the application in the blue box near the top of the Library's home page.

Study Rooms

Is it o.k. for my study group to meet in the library?

Yes! We have rooms just for group work. We also have a Quiet Room that has computers and tables and no talking. Contact the reference librarian ahead of time to reserve a study room. 

Please note that we are observing CDC & local health department guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic. Guidelines are subject to change.

How do I reserve a room?

You may reserve a room up to four weeks in advance either by telephone or in person. Rooms may be reserved by a group for up to a maximum of three hours in one-half hour increments.
