  3. Come to the library, return any items you still have at home in the drive-up book drop. 

  4. Park in one of the designated curbside delivery parking spaces.

  6. Please remain in your vehicle so we can provide you with contactless delivery.  Staff will maintain strict social distancing and cannot accept returns when making deliveries. Returns must go into the drive-up book drop for 72 hours of quarantine.

  7. Staff will check out your items and bring them to your car. Open your trunk or backseat passenger side window or door, and we will place your items inside!

Curbside service is something we will do to keep you safe, while still providing access to the materials of your library. Reading is an important skill and treasured leisure activity. We at the While Lake Library are committed to getting those books and other materials into your hands in the safest way.  

We look forward to seeing you!

Take care, stay safe, and be well!
