Hoopla & Kanopy checkout limits update

Hoopla & Kanopy checkout limits update

Due to COVID closures in 2020 the Westchester Library System (WLS) increased the checkout limits on Hoopla and Kanopy. WLS kept those higher checkout levels as long as possible, but the rising costs of allowing these extra checkouts have become too expensive.

Starting November 1, 2025 monthly borrows will return to pre-pandemic levels of 5 borrows for Hoopla and 30 Tickets for Kanopy.

We thank you for your understanding and for your ongoing support.Read More Read More

The Elevator Will Be Out of Service Starting on Monday, July 21st

The elevator company has projected a six-week long repair, at which time our main elevator will be completely out of service. If you’d like to access the upper and lower levels of the library, you will have to use the stairs. We will have large carts available in the New Books Room (on your left when you enter through the front door) with a selection of books from adult fiction and adult non-fiction.  If you are unable to use the stairs, please alert a staff member and we will be more than happy to grab an item for you. Read More Read More

The Frick Museum Pass Has Arrived

The Frick Museum Pass Has Arrived

The Friends of the Larchmont Public Library have graciously allowed us to purchase a pass for the newly renovated (and re-opened) Frick Collection in Manhattan. As some of you might recall, the library had a pass for the Frick pre-Covid. The Frick underwent a huge renovation shortly thereafter so we have been without this pass for about four years!

Please book your pass online or give us a call at the Information Desk (914) 834-2281, ext. #3 and we can do it for you. The Frick pass comes with two membership cards, each good for one person to enter the museum for free.Read More Read More

We Now Have Laptop Chargers!

After a lot of suggestions from patrons, we finally have four laptop chargers that can be used within the library. We have purchased two chargers for Chrome books and two Mac chargers. If you are looking to borrow a charger, please visit the Information Desk. We will ask that you give us your library card, ID, car keys, or anything else as collateral until you return the chargers when you are finished using them. The new chargers are in addition to the phone chargers we already have available for in-library use.Read More Read More
