Can I get e-books and other digital material through this library?
Yes! The WWCRLD loans most of our eBooks and eAudiobooks through two apps. The first is the Libby app courtesy of the Washington Anytime Library, an online consortium of digital materials run by the state library. The second is Hoopla, an app/streaming service that offers eBooks, eAudiobooks, video and music streaming, and more. Ask library staff for information about how to download materials to your device(s).

Can I use library facilities for my personal/group/club etc. meeting?

Meeting room use is at the discretion of the branch supervisor and District Executive Director. For more information, please see our Meeting Room Policy.

I want an item that you don't have.
If you don't see something on the shelf of one of our libraries, it may be at a different branch! Ask a librarian or search our catalog online to find and place holds on specific items. If we don't have the item you want in our collection, you may make purchase suggestions on our website or by phone with library staff (click here for branch-specific contact information). Please note that these items may take longer to receive.

What about computers? Do you have Wi-Fi? Can I print?
Each branch of the WWCRLD has Wi-Fi available for public use. Contact your branch for the WiFi password. Each branch also has at least one computer for public use, and we do have print, copy, and fax services available for a fee.

What about late fees?
Good news! The WWCRLD does not charge late fees. If an item is overdue for more than 30 days, a block is placed on the account until the item is returned or paid for. Patrons will only be charged for items which are lost or damaged. If you are unable to pay for an item, please speak to library staff.
