Edwards Library art
The Edwards Base Library has added a new self-checkout
system to help customers check out their own library books if staff members
are unavailable to provide immediate assistance. Customers will need to use
their library cards to checkout or renew books using this system. However,
compact disks, movies and audiobooks will need to be checked out at the
desk, as those will be handed directly from the librarians to the customers.
