Can’t Get Out for Library Materials? Let the Library Come to You!

Are you confined to your home and unable to visit your local library? Let us bring the library to you!

The Jasper County Public Library will deliver library materials to and pick up library materials from homebound residents. You may request the following types of materials: books, magazines, audio books, music CDs, VHS/DVDs, and computer software.

Our Walking Books Service is available to residents of the Jasper County Public Library service district who are homebound, either on a permanent or temporary basis. Delivery may be door to door at the discretion of the library.

Books magazines, audio books, and CDs will circulate for 6 weeks, with one renewal of three weeks when necessary. Entertainment VHS and DVDs check out for one week, with renewals as needed. Patrons are not charged overdue fines.

In addition, our library website is available 24/7 and allows quick access to our online catalog, research resources, lists of new library materials, and our Community Resource Guide and much, much more. You will find us online at www.myjcpl.org.
