Book Checkout

The Library’s collection has been developed over the years primarily through residents’ book donations.  Materials available for circulation include books, large-print books, audio books, and videos.  Books from our small reference collection on the Library’s lower level must be used in the Library.

Signing Out Books
Picture

The sign-out sheet is located on the table in the first floor of the Library. Readers must sign out any book that leaves the Library. If you are guest, please include your host's name on the sign-out sheet.
Returning Books
Picture

Cross your entry off the sign-out list on the table in the first floor of the Library. Place your book in the clearly marked blue plastic bin near the door. Please do not reshelve books; our shelving system lets us keep track of which books are being read.

Book
Cart

Outside the Library’s upper-level entrance is the Book Cart.  This is where the Library Committee sells books it cannot use. The offerings on the cart change from week to week, so stop and browse often.  

Books may end up on the cart for several reasons.  Sometimes a book is donated, but we already have a copy in the collection. Sometimes we receive interesting donations, but they may be too specialized for our Library. Sometimes, because of shelf space limitations, we must remove less-used books.  Proceeds are used to purchase new books and supplies for the Library.

Prices are posted and quite minimal. We operate on an honor system—if you take something from the Book Cart, please leave your payment in the small metal box.  A Library Committee member checks the Book Cart daily and collects the proceeds.

Don’t want to buy a book, but have a pocketful of loose change?  Support the Library, and drop it in the metal box.

"The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.”
