New resource for book discussions!

The Putnam County Public Library has a new service to offer library patrons. 

The new POLARIS automated system offers additional features, including email notification delivered directly to a patron’s inbox. Library card-holders can have emails sent to alert them that an item requested is being held at the circulation desk. An e-mail that material is “almost due” is sent 3 days prior to the due date, which is particularly helpful—and cost saving—since fines for DVDs are a $1 per day per item. Email notification that material is overdue will be sent after 14 days. 

Current card holders can stop by the library circulation desk and give staff their email address in order to receive email notification services. This change can not be made online. 

Don’t have a library card? Now is the perfect time to stop by the library to sign-up for one. 

The Putnam County Public Library is located at 103 E. Poplar Street, Greencastle. 

For additional information please call, (765) 653-2755, ext. 0.

Web access to the library's online catalog, which replaced the old card catalog, allows everyone with an Internet-capable computer to search the catalog, while patrons can check their personal account to see what they have checked out or on hold, renew items, or place holds on items of interest. The hold process offers the option of picking items up either at the building or one of the bookmobile's numerous stops.

We often take pictures at library events to use in library publicity materials and on our website.  If you do not want us to use a picture of you or your child, please tell a librarian prior to the event.
