Curbside Pickup 

Patrons can reserve items online or by calling the Circulation Desk. When the items are ready, patrons will receive a notification that items are ready for pickup (please note that this may take up to 24 hours). When patrons arrive for the pickup, a staff member delivers it to their car.

Curbside Pickup Procedures
