Zip Book Program: Thank you for participating in the Zip Book Program. Unfortunately our funds have been depleted for the 2017-2018 year. The program will start again in October 2018. Until then, please check out our other services like Overdrive, which houses a large collection of e-books and audiobooks. You can also fill out a book request slip at the front desk. (Please note because of budget reasons we are unable to fulfill all requests, and priority will be given to items with a 2018 copyright date.)
