Circulation Desk

The Circulation Staff welcomes you to its web page.

Above you'll find several important links: policies, on-line catalog, information on your account, and our newest and most popular items. When you visit the Library itself, the Circulation Desk is closest to the entrance and just across from the New Books area. The Circulation Desk is where you can: get a smile, a library card, check out and return material, reserve a meeting room, get a PIN for remote access to your library account, ask about authors and titles and reserve books and other material.
