To check out items, you need to bring your library card. There are two ways you can do this. One is using a physical card and the other is using a digital card. There is an app you can download called the Westchester Library System where you can add your card digitally. Most of the time everyone has their phones so this is a great alternative if you forgot your physical card at home.

There are a few ways to get items from the library if they aren’t available right away. What you can do is place a hold. To place a hold on a library item, you can do it online through the catalog or give us a call at the reference desk at 914-834-2281. To login to our catalog, start with going to our website, www.larchmontlibrary.org. There is a “catalog & your account” icon to click right on the front page. There is a “sign in” button you can click on the upper right next to the “hamburger menu” which looks like three horizontal lines.Read More Read More

The staff member then enters the invoice number of the packing slip into the computer to let the computer know that the order arrived.Read More Read More
