To Our NWPL Patrons,
This week we are really and truly off and running.
We've been very busy filling your requests for books and media, sorting the multitude of returns from the past few months, putting items in quarantine, and re-shelving it all. Every day, the bookdrop box is full of returns, often overflowing.
Beginning this week, you can now put a hold on a book from our online catalog
. Once again, the service will allow you to have faster access to the most highly sought after books. Yay!
Other libraries throughout Vermont
are just beginning to offer curbside service and some are still a few weeks out. We appreciate your help and patience as we navigate these changes and institute the best processes we can. We've expanded the ordering times and pickup times for greater flexibility for our patrons. If you haven't yet tried curbside service, read on!
Picnic with your laptop and get free WiFi.
When the library doors closed in March, we moved the WiFi router so the public could access it from outside. People often sit in their cars, curbside, to use the NWPL WiFi while in the village. Now that the weather is gorgeous (except when it's not), bring your laptop, tablet or smartphone and hang out at a picnic table while you use the WiFi. The password is below and is also posted on the front door of the library.
Oh yeah. If you do take up my suggestion
(using the link to a guided template further down in this newsletter) and draw your self-portrait, please do share!
Happy first day of summer!
