The deadline for picking up books is as follows:

  • To pick up items on Monday, make your reservation by Friday at 10 a.m.
  • To pick up items on Wednesday, make your reservation by Tuesday at 10 a.m.
  • To pick up items on Friday, make your reservation by Thursday at 10 a.m.

There is a limit of 60 reservations per shift to avoid crowding. Please follow social distancing rules, and patiently wait behind the taped line if there is someone already at the table. We kindly ask that you wear a mask when picking up your books.

To pick up your books, go to the Children’s Room entrance, where there are tables under the portico. Holds for each patron will be wrapped in paper with the first three letters of your last name, and first initial, written on the paper. They are arranged alphabetically, and the items will already be checked out to you. Just grab and go.

Please be patient with us as we explore how to best support our patrons during turbulent times. The Library welcomes comments and suggestions at libraryquestions@dover.nh.gov.
