The Silver City Public Library will resume curbside pickup of library items starting Wednesday, July 15, 2020, while the library is closed to the public.
The curbside service system is designed with the goal of reducing the risk of virus contagion. Checkout limits are reduced to 5 per person, 10 per household; and appointments are spaced out in intervals in order to make the service safer.
There are four steps:
(1) Reserve items. Reserves can be placed by logging in to the library catalog at silvercity.biblionix.com, by email, or by phone.
(2) Make an appointment. Call library staff to choose an appointment time, Tuesday-Saturday. Appointment times are limited and are given on a first-come first-served basis. Please keep your appointment and pick up on time.
(3) Pickup. Library staff will have the reserves waiting at a clearly designated pick-up spot near the Cooper Street doors at the appointment time. Just drop by and pick them up. If you miss your appointment time, the books will be held for 3 days; call back to reschedule.
(4) Return. Return books to the silver return bin outside the front doors of the library.
Curbside service availability is subject to change if there are changes in public health orders.
