Changes at North Lincolnshire Central Library
We have installed new express self-service kiosks at North Lincolnshire Central Library.
This means
- Less likelihood of queuing as the kiosks are quick and easy to use
- Better access to staff for customers who need help with enquiries
- Greater privacy when borrowing books
- Extra shelving offering more books
- New "comfort zone" offering more seating.
- The Central Library also now opens at 9am Monday to Saturday.
Changes at other libraries
We have also installed new express self-service kiosks at Ashby Library, Barton Library, Brigg Library, Goxhill Library and Winterton Library and Resource Centre.
Improved library catalogue
Our online library catalogue has recently been upgraded. It is easier to use and has new features. You can now submit book reviews (and read other people's); create a wishlist; link to Amazon and amend your own personal details.
New pre-overdue service
Some people have been telling us that it would be useful to know in advance, when their books are going to be due back. Now, if you have told us your email address, we will send you an email a couple of days beforehand to remind you that your books are due back shortly. To take advantage of this new service, visit our online catalogue information page, or ask library staff on your next visit.
No limits on the number of times you can renew
There is now no limit to how many times you may renew your books. Provided that another reader has not reserved the books you have borrowed, you may renew them as many times as you like. This will help you to finish long books and enable you to renew from home instead of visiting the library, when you are pressed for time.
If you have any queries about any of the new services please ask a member of library staff or email library.enquiries@northlincs.gov.uk.
