The Dryden Public Library offers a Curbside Pick Up Program for Library Material.
Ordering Material
Patrons with library cards in good standing will be able to order material over the phone during regular operating hours, or through our Curbside Pick Up Form. Due dates for DVD and Blu-ray material will be extended to 7-day loans. You can search the Library's Catalogue to find material, and if you need help selecting a title our staff will be happy to help you over the phone.
Picking Up Material
Material will be available for pick up during the Library's open hours. Once your order is ready our staff will contact you by telephone or email. We will ask you to provide an estimate pick up time, to help us organize our orders.
When you arrive at the Library please call the Library’s circulation desk to notify staff, or ring the buzzer by the side door on Princess St. All curbside pickups will be taking place at the side entrance.
Our staff members will retrieve materials, and will provide your materials along with a checkout slip that lists the due dates for your material.
The safety of staff and patrons is our priority. Patrons must follow all safety guidelines laid out by staff, as well as all behavioural guidelines listed in our Patron Code of Conduct. Patrons who do not follow these guidelines will not be able to pick up their material and may have their library privileges suspended.
Returning Material
All items must be returned through the book drop, which is accessible 24/7.
Disclaimers
Curbside pick-up, staffing, phone hours, and other services may change at any time due to changed in the local or provincial situation. Updates will be posted on our website, and social media platforms as developments occur.
Returned materials will be cleaned before being placed back into the lending collection. Although we strive to sanitize and practice safe handling of materials, The Dryden Public Library cannot guarantee the sanitation of library items. Please handle items with caution.
Patrons are advised to wash hands before and after handling library material, to avoid touching their face while reading, and to avoid sneezing or coughing on library material, for their safety and the safety of the public.
Patrons who are immunosuppressed or otherwise at a high risk of COVID-19 infection should not take out material from the Library at this time.
