Hoopla Borrowing Issue
We are aware that patrons have been experiencing issues with Hoopla since the number of check outs was reduced earlier this month. The change that the Westchester Library System implemented includes a daily checkout limit of 333 for the entire county. The daily limit resets at midnight and because of the small number, the check outs reach the max very quickly. We understand your frustration when trying to borrow a title. The Westchester Library System is aware of the issue, and we are looking into other options to make Hoopla more accessible. Thank you for your patience.

Tax Forms Have Arrived
We are now the proud possessors of all the major New York State tax forms and instructions. They are neatly stacked and displayed next to the front door. We also have the Federal 1040 instructions and the 1040 and 1040-SR forms. This is all we will get from the IRS. No schedules, nothing else. We can help you get them, however.
So what should you do about the Federal forms, instructions, schedules, etc.?Read More
Volunteering at the Library- An Update
Our adult volunteer program is an excellent way for people to stay connected to the library while also helping us manage small tasks such as keeping the shelves in order, weeding books and helping with programs.
At the moment, we are not looking to take on any new adult volunteers. Our high volume of applicants (thank you for applying!) and our volume of volunteer work do not match up. This does not mean that you cannot apply for volunteer work at the library- you are more than welcome to submit an application online and we will keep it on file for the future.
Please check out our adult volunteer page and feel free to contact our librarian, Alex Neceda, with any additional questions.
Changes in Digital Resources
There are some changes in two of our digital resources. Starting February 1st, patrons will only be able to check out 3 titles on Hoopla per month. The streaming service Kanopy will have reduced monthly tickets as well. Instead of 30 tickets per month, patrons will now have 5 tickets per month.
