HIGHLIGHTED SERVICE: Interlibrary Loan Did you ever want to read a book that the local library did not have? Interlibrary loan is a program where libraries can borrow books from other libraries for patrons. For example, this is a great way to read books by your favorite author that our library does not have. There is a charge of $2.00 per book for this service to defer costs of postage and handling. Call 774-6045, ext. 205 if you wish to make a request over the phone. (more information in "Library Services" below)
