Kits & Unique Items
The library lends books, DVDs, and magazines. But did you know that there is SO MUCH MORE you could be borrowing with your library card? Browse our offerings below:
Support GTPL in September
September is Love Your Library month! Once again, thanks to the support of the Jack Buncher Foundation, donations made to the Green Tree Public Library will be matched up to $500 during September. At the end of the campaign, libraries will
receive a pro-rated portion of the match pool to support their general operations based on total funds raised. Stop by the Green Tree Public Library to make a donation or donate online at loveyourlibrary.org.
Computers at the Library
Computers inside the library can now be accessed without en- tering a library card number. If you forget your card, no prob- lem, log right on! Visiting from out of town and need to print a document? Be our guest, without needing to obtain a guest pass. Maybe you forgot to return a book and have some nes lingering on your account or your card expired. In the past you would have been blocked computer usage. Now, you may log into a computer regardless of the standing of your library card.
Keep in mind that we will still implement computer time limits of 60 minutes, with two additional 30-minute sessions available if no one else is waiting. All policies regarding the acceptable use of the internet still apply.
With this new policy, we hope to remove barriers to computer access, enhance customer service, and create a more welcoming atmosphere for everyone.
