Main Library Media Room

On June 1 the Main Library at 145 Washington Avenue will close the media room to begin the process of reorganizing the public spaces in the library to better serve our patrons. Until June 1, the media room will open at noon on weekdays.

To access media materials, patrons may place holds on media which will be available for pickup at the Circulation Desk. Patrons may also access media items at the La Farge and Southside Branches.

The reorganizing will include incorporating the media collection into the downstairs book collection. This will include the moving of audio books, CDs and DVDs. The first step will begin by moving the audiobooks to shelving in the large type book area.

To place a hold on any library item, patrons may call any of the libraries or visit the online catalog. The Main Library can be called at (505) 955-6781 or (505) 955-6785; La Farge Branch at (505) 955-4860 or Southside Branch at (505) 955-2820. Materials on hold may be sent to the library chosen by the patron for pick up.

Library Card Information

Overdue Policy

The library does not charge fines for overdue items. Patrons will be blocked from checking out other items if any item becomes 14 days overdue.

A bill is mailed to patrons via United States mail for any item that is 30 days or more overdue. The bill will include an estimated replacement cost.

The Library works to serve our users. When materials are long overdue, the items are not available for other patrons to check out. The Library does not have a large enough budget to be able to purchase extra copies of items that are long overdue. We appreciate your working with us to get books and other materials back in a timely manner.
