• Staff will contact the resident to determine needs and interests, then select materials from our collection
• Once a month, staff will drop off books to the resident and pick up the previous materials to return to the library
• This is a free service, with no late fees associated; any materials that are lost or damaged will be charged to the user based on the current fee schedule
