Modified hours at the Library due to lack of heat

Please note that as of Wednesday, February 21st furnace repairs have been completed and our hours have returned to normal. Please click here for a list of our hours.

It may be cold inside the Library, but our warm-hearted staff are here to help you. The Library is currently closed due to lack of heat in part of the building, but we will reopen Tuesday, February 20 operating on a modified schedule until repairs to our furnace are completed. Please check back for updates. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Our dedicated librarians are monitoring our email and are here to answer questions regarding your account or the abundant downloadable resources you can assess from home (see below). Please write to us at library@pelhamlibrary.org. We promise to respond promptly.

You can also access your account from home to reserve or renew books by clicking here then clicking on the sign-in button in the upper right-hand corner. Enter your current 14-digit library card number and your pin (usually the last four digits of the phone number associated with your card).

As always, the book drop located at the entrance on Carol Place is open 24/7. Items returned before February 24, 2024 will not incur any late fees.
