The library continues to provide services even though our doors not open to the public. You may call 353-2712, email atharlemlib@live.com or Facebook message if you need to check out materials. We will deliver them curbside or at the door. If you are unable to leave your home please contact the library and we will make arrangements to deliver materials to you if you live within the city limits. We can also mail you items. You may also make an appointment to use a computer. If you need to make copies, send a FAX, or have something notarized we are happy to provide those services if you call to make arrangements.

For your peace of mind, we are disinfecting all materials that are returned and setting them aside for several days before they are shelved.

The Book Challenge for April is to read a book with a name in the title. We would be happy to find one for you.
