patrons to use the computers two times a day.
HOW LONG CAN I CHECK OUT ITEMS?
In order to offer our patrons excellent customer
service including greater accessibility to all of our items, print and audio
books may be checked out for 2 weeks with the ability to have two (2) renewals
(if there is no holds on the item) adding up to a total of six weeks check out
period.
DVDs will continue to be checked out for their
usual 1-week time period.
Policy for the number of
books to be checked out and the loan time have been changed as well. Adults may
check out up to five items at one time, including books, audio books, and
DVDs/BluRays. Patrons between the ages of 5 and 18 will be able to get five (5)
DVDs/BluRays along with books, up to 20 Children’s, Juvenile, and YA items per

All items upon return
will be placed in a three (3) day quarantine period. You will see them on your record on Prairie Cat until their quarantine period is over.
- HOW ARE STAFF MAINTAINING SAFETY FROM THE VIRUS?
- WHAT IS THE DUE DATE FOR ITEMS I CURRENTLY HAVE CHECKED OUT?
- WHEN WILL THE LIBRARY OPEN UP LIKE IT WAS BEFORE THE PANDEMIC QUARANTINE?
At this time we have shortened hours, and limited copying/faxing/computer services. As soon as we open more, we will announce it on our website, Facebook, Instagram, in newspapers, and on radio stations.
Throughout all of this, we are working to do our part to keep our community safe and give the best service possible.
