Why won’t the catalog let me renew my books online?
If your books are overdue, you can’t renew them yourself, although we can do it for you. It is also possible that your library card has expired. Please give us a call or stop by and we will check the status of your card.
Is there internet access in the library?
Yes! All three libraries have internet computers and wireless internet access. You may call ahead to reserve computer time. There are more people who want to use computers than there are computers, so you get one hour per day. The Cody library also has two first-come, first-serve e-mail computers which may be used for 15 minutes. You can read our internet use policy for more details.
Do you have some information about. . . ?
Probably. If you’re looking for a book on a particular topic, try searching the online catalog from the Home Page of this website. Enter a search term and then click on Go.
If you are doing research for a school project, you might try some of our online resources. We have encyclopedias, databases of magazine and newspaper articles, and many other resources. You can also learn about your genealogy, find out how to fix your car, find a sample legal form, or take practice tests (GED, ACT, firefighter, cosmetology, and more). If you can’t find what you’re looking for, please come to the library or give us a call or e-mail.
How do I search the library catalog?
Please use the “wyldcat” search box from the Home page of this website. Enter a search term, such as an author or title and then click on “Go”. Once you enter the catalog, you might try an “exact” or “browse” search or use the Advanced Search option.
How do I find out if my library has a book or movie or CD?
Try searching the online catalog.
How do I request a book, movie, CD, etc.?
To request a book that your library (or some other library in the state) owns, find the item in the catalog, click on the “Place Hold” button, enter your library card number and PIN (which is probably wyld, unless you changed it), and click “Request Item.” If the book is from outside of Park County, you’ll also get a screen asking how much you’re willing to pay. The standard charge is $3. You can also call or stop by the library. If you want something not owned by any libraries in Wyoming, stop by or give us a call and we will try to get it for you from out of state.
To suggest a book, CD, movie, or other resource for purchase by the library, stop by and fill out a request form or send us an e-mail.
