Library Cards
|
|
We are now using plastic barcoded library cards.
Each library user will have his/her own card and will need it each
time to check out library materials. Patrons are required to
register with the library. Adults must provide identification with
their current address when registering. A parent's signature is
required for children under 16. Anyone over age 6 may obtain a
library card. These cards are valid for use in any participating
OWWL library.

Reserving Books
|
|
If we don't have the book you're looking for we can place a
hold for you from any of the 42 libraries in the Pioneer
Library System. We will call you when the material becomes
available. Patrons may also place their own holds from home or
in the library. You must use both your library PIN number and
the entire library card number to reserve the desired material.
When you have found the desired material, click on the words
"full details", place the mouse over the words "hold" located in
the upper right hand corner and click once. This brings up the
screen to fill in the entire library card number and PIN and
pick up library. We will be glad to assist you with any
problems.
