What Library services are offered through Evie?

When you visit Evie, you can do almost everything you could do at one of our branch libraries. You can check materials out, you can return materials from any branch, you can get a library card. We can help you put materials on hold or check the status of your holds, but we don’t deliver holds – you will have to pick those up at one of the branches.

You can also print, use our WiFi, or check out a Chromebook kit. We will often have storytimes or an activity or craft. And we are always happy to help you find your next great read. We hope to see you soon!
