"Porch-side" pickup now available!
Patrons can now use the online catalog and their accounts to reserve books for pick up at a designated time, or give us a call for assistance.
What you need to know:
The book dropbox is open again. Please note that we will be quarantining items for 72 hours before check in so you will not see your returns reflected on your account right away.
Our hours will be limited for now. Librarians will be in the library to assist you by phone or email on Wednesdays and Fridays from 2:30 PM to 6:30 PM and Saturdays from 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM.
After you have placed a reserve (or hold) through your online account or by phone, wait for us to contact you to let you know your items are ready for pickup.
This will be a no contact service, as much as we miss seeing and chatting with you! When you arrive at the library, please call us or beep your horn if you do not have a mobile phone and we will place your bagged items on a table on the porch. Once we have re-entered the building, you may come pick up your bag.
Please be patient with us and prepared for changes as we work out the kinks in the new system. We are doing all we can to keep patrons and staff safe! Thank you.
The Mission of the Milton Free Public Library is to provide quality library services to all members of the community to enrich and inform our lives through the power of books, the resources of technology, and special programs for lifelong learning, for entertainment, for enjoyment of knowledge of our world and democratic heritage.
During the last few months we have been working to make our online catalog as user-friendly as we can. Please check out a new search feature we have enabled called "visual". It more closely resembles how you would look for items on the shelves. If you like to browse the new book shelf when you come in, click on "Recent Additions" and see what's new. You can also browse children's bedtime and storybooks, graphic novels, and DVD and audiobooks. Once you've clicked on a category, you can filter the results as needed using the choices on the left-hand side of the page. Please let us know if this works for you!
