Curbside Service!
What exactly is Curbside Service at the library? We are setting up our system to allow Freeport residents to place holds on materials located inside the Freeport Public Library. How will this work? Starting May 12, follow these steps:
Step One: Go to our online catalog and place a hold OR call the library to place a hold. 815-233-3000
Step Two: You will be notified when your items are available for pickup. Make sure your contact information is up to date!
Step Three: After we contact you, come to the library to pick up your items. Pull up to the tables, stay in your vehicle, our team members will verify your identity and retrieve your items for you.
*ALL RETURNS MUST BE PLACED IN THE BOOKDROPS ON THE SIDE OF THE BUILDING CLOSEST TO DEBATE SQUARE*
