Stretch your creative muscles and join fellow crafters to create fun, easy projects at the Cody library.
Our first adult craft event of the year will be Beaded Bookmarks on Friday, January 22, in Grizzly Hall.
Because space will be limited due to social distancing, signups are required. There are two available time slots to sign-up for; 10am and 2pm.
To signup, please stop by the circulation desk, call the library at (307)527-1880, or email [email protected]
If you read and finish any books between January 18th and February 28th, stop by your local library to fill out a simple entry slip.
You can submit one entry per book with no limit on how many books you can read during the challenge.
The entries will be put into a drawing for great prizes in each age category!
The Winter Reading challenge is for all age groups and reading levels.
Your Park County Libraries are no longer charging daily fines for overdues materials!
In fact, they are eliminating all outstanding late fees on all patrons’ accounts. Late fees used to be .10 cents per day per item. The stress of having late fees on accounts would cause some of our patrons to avoid coming into the library altogether. We want to eliminate that barrier for all of our patrons by going fine free.
We will still have our regular due dates and items will automatically renew if they do not have holds. You will also receive an email, text, or phone call if items need to be returned. Items that are 30 days past due will be marked as assumed lost and that account will then be charged the full price of the missing item. This cost will be removed once the lost item has been returned. Items that are returned damaged will continue to be assessed a damage fee as well.
If you have always thought of paying fines as your donation to the library, we still accept donations to the Park County Library Foundation. We will also continue to charge for other services; such as making copies, replacing lost library cards, and out-of-county interlibrary loans.
Your Park County Libraries hope to see more faces come through the doors as the burden of having overdue fines has disappeared for good.
