Out of Town Card Fee Increase
In order to continue to offer the same level of services to our out-of-town patrons, we will be increasing the cost of out of town cards to $20.00 beginning July 1, 2010.
Please remember! Patrons who have small children in baby carriages or strollers as well as those who
have difficulty walking or getting around are welcome to use the elevator entrance located at the back of the library/bank parking lot. Press the buzzer and a staff member will release the latch for you to enter.
