The library take-out process:

• Place library materials on hold online or by calling your local library

• Wait for notification your holds are ready by email or phone

• Arrive at the library, look for Library Takeout signs

• Call or text to let staff know you’ve arrived — numbers are on the signs

Follow directions on safely picking up your materials

When returning library materials, remember return bins will be available during Library Takeout days and hours at branch locations only. Place your materials directly in bins. Do not hand materials to staff. Place only library materials in the bins — no bags. No donations are being accepted at this time.

Library buildings are still closed to the public which means there is no public access, no meeting rooms, no restrooms, and no computer use. Additional services will be added after all five counties in the Timberland Regional Library service area are in Stage 3 and the Governor has issued guidance to libraries on next steps for reopening.

Wifi continues to be available at all library locations from 6 a.m to midnight daily and mobile printing print job pick up will be available during Library Takeout.
