You may have two items checked out at a time. (That number does NOT include Chromebooks for high school students.)
You may have the book for three weeks before it is late.
You may renew a book one time unless someone else is waiting for it. To renew a book, stop by the library or click on the Contact the Library button above to email your request.
Because our library caters to a wide-range of ages, books written for more mature audiences are marked on the spine with one black star (only high school) or two black stars (only juniors/seniors).
If you want to read a book above your age range, your parent/guardian must approve it prior to check-out.
Lost book fees will vary depending on the replacement cost of the book.
Lost Chromebook fees are assessed through the office.
Overdue/Missing Book reminders will be sent out at least once a month.
Here's a link to the local library's card catalog. If we don't have what you're looking for, check with them! Library cards are free if you live in Cedar County. You can get one at the library with proof of residency (utility bill, etc.). You can use your card at either the El Dorado Springs branch or the Stockton branch. Your card also gives you access to online books through Overdrive's Libby App. It's the public library version of Sora. If you live in St. Clair County, you have similar free services available through the library in Osceola. The library in Nevada is financed through a city tax, so if you live in Vernon County, there is a fee to use the city library.
