We know curbside isn't as exciting as coming into the library, so here's a little refresher on how to navigate the library's website and how to put an item on hold.

Explore what is under the microscope next week in our first return to Lab Rats, with a mini science project! We are limited in total participants and require everyone to be registered before coming in. Drop-ins will not be possible at this time.

2 more exciting science projects are coming soon. Register today and get your kit at least a week before the event as emails will be sent with the meeting link. 4pm on November 23 for Candy Chemistry and 4pm on November 25 for Mix it Up. We still have room in our 2 science projects next week for November 16 and 18 if you want to take part! Call us today to get started.

Here is a quick rundown of our procedures for handling item returns here at the library and why you might see an item showing as "Checked out" still.

We will be closed Monday October 12 for Thanksgiving. All of our online services will still be available at ltipl.net including Libby, Hoopla, and Kanopy! Have a safe long weekend from everyone at the Leeds and Thousand Islands Public Library.... #library #thanksgiving2020 #morethanjustbooks
