This month we're highlighting

  • Get Started HERE!
Try it out!

Customize Notices: By default, the library sends out set notices for every user. Library Elf is great for setting up additional ones on the schedule that works for you. When signed in, go to My Account under User Services and click Edit on the same line as Options. Select notices based on due dates or even set up weekly ones plus add certain text alerts. 

Track Other Cards: Have multiple cards to manage for a household or an elderly parent you’re helping with their account? Go to Add a Card and type in the name, barcode number, and PIN for any card you’d like to add.

See What’s Due: You can visit Check My Cards at any time. The calendar shows you any dates where items are due for any card you’ve added, and you can hover over the date to see those titles. All items checked out as well as items on hold are listed under the calendar.

Please mark your calendars:
