Limited Browsing

Limited Browsing

Limited Browsing is now available Monday through Saturday 1-4:30 pm. This means masked, socially distanced patrons can wander through our stacks to look for something to read, to watch or to listen. You can also check out holds. Browsing for the Adult/Teen rooms does not require an appointment. Patrons may walk-in Monday-Saturday 1pm-4:30pm. Appointments are still suggested for the Children’s Room. Although appointments are not mandatory, they will guarantee admittance at your chosen time. If you haven’t used Browsing before, we suggest you look at the FAQ. Public computers, seating and study spaces are not available at this time.Read More Read More

Need help with the vaccine process?

Westchester County Executive George Latimer has instructed the County’s Department of Seniors Programs & Services (DSPS) to use all available resources to help the County’s senior population navigate the vaccine appointment process.  DSPS has an information and assistance phone line that is available to assist Westchester’s seniors on weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m at 914-813-6300. Bear in mind that many seniors are not too internet savvy. Please share this number with anyone you know of who might find it useful.Read More Read More

Forms and Printing at the Library

Forms and Printing at the Library

Right about now people start making their annual pilgrimage to the Library in search of tax forms. Tax forms will be discussed later in this post, but first a word about printing in general. We understand that many people rely on Library computers to print out things they need for their life such as DMV forms and the like. The fact that our building is closed does not mean we can’t still help you. We will print what you need and you can get it using Curbside Pickup. Here’s what you do: Read More Read More

Missed your curbside appointment?

Missed your curbside appointment?

Now you will have an extra week to pick up your poor, sad, forgotten items. Just make an appointment for a date within that week and we’ll put them out again. This is not an automatic process. You must make a new appointment.

Please continue to make every effort to meet your original curbside appointments. Preparing curbside pickup is a complicated, labor-intensive task and keeping track of second-chance pickups does not make it easier. However, we understand that life sometimes gets in the way so we are happy to provide this additional service.Read More Read More

Lucky 13th!

The roof construction has moved far enough along so that we can resume onsite services on Tuesday, October 13. We will have regular Curbside Pickup and Browsing by Appointment (including the Children’s Room) hours. There will bins outside for returns from 9am to 4:30pm. We aren’t charging for any overdues, so you don’t have to rush to get things back on Tuesday. Holds sent to us from other libraries will be delayed, as they still have to be quarantined upon arrival here. Librarians will be answering phones at the usual times and hours (914) 834-2281 x.3 for Adult and x4 for the Children’s Room) Finally, if you had something already on the Holds Shelf before we closed for construction, please pick it up by the Wednesday, October 14th. Read More Read More

We are raising the roof!

We are raising the roof!

And then putting down a brand new one over our Children’s Room. This means we will be closed starting Sunday, Oct. 4. We anticipate resuming our current schedule on Tuesday, October 13th. There are a lot of things to explain so let’s get started:

  • We’ve scheduled extra curbside pickup sessions on Friday and Saturday mornings so you can get your books before we close. There will be no curbside sessions during the closure.
  • Browsing sessions are unchanged leading up to the closure, but sessions are usually underbooked and walk-ins are welcome.

A note about voting forms

A note about voting forms

We’ve been putting absentee ballot applications and voter registration forms in front of the library over the past few weeks. We will not be able to do so during construction. The last day to register to vote for the Nov. 3 General Election is Oct. 9, 2020. If you mail in your registration, it must be postmarked by that day (and received by the Board of Elections by Oct. 14). You can register in person as well. If you miss getting one of the forms we put out, don’t worry.Read More Read More

Banned Books Week

Banned Books Week

Just what you’ve been waiting for – it’s Banned Books Week! We’ve pulled a fine selection of them for display, so you don’t have to slink into the stacks to find them. Revisit old favorites, and maybe find some new “Banned in Boston” titles. In case you can’t make it into the library, click on “Read More” below to see the books. All of them are available for download via Overdrive/Libby. Remember, the only person who should decide what you read is you.Read More Read More

Some of Our Museum Passes are Back!

Some of Our Museum Passes are Back!

We have good news! Our ever-popular Museum Pass Program is springing back into action after a long hiatus. We know that our patrons have sincerely missed this invaluable resource which is so generously funded each year by the Friends of the Larchmont Public Library. As many museums in our area have started to reopen, and we know you’re eager to get out of the house, please keep in mind that things are running a bit ‘differently’ at the moment.

Census 2020 Information

Census 2020 Information

We know that the past few months have been trying and it seems almost impossible to keep up with everything going on. If you have not had time to fill out the 2020 Census yet, don’t fret- the deadline for online, phone and mail-in responses has been extended until September 30th. Please remember that the census only comes around every 10 years and the data collected helps businesses, researchers and communities make crucial planning decisions. In other words, it’s kind of a ‘big deal’ and we want to make sure you’re counted!Read More Read More
