Library offering new perks

Westend delivery provides top-10 Libby books

Beginning Thursday, Nov. 20, the weekly Westend-Cathlamet Library delivery service will be providing the top-10 Libby books at each delivery. This means you can now arrive at the Thursday delivery site, review the top-10 Libby books available, and check-out whatever book you are interested in. You can do all this without needing to place the book on hold or pre-ordering in advance.

As a (cookie) reminder, any library member who arrives at the Thursday delivery and picks-up a book, DVD, or cultural pass will receive two chocolate chip cookies from The Cottage Bread and Breakfast in Cathlamet. The Westend-Cathlamet Library delivery service is every Thursday from 2 – 3 p.m. at the Rosburg/Raistakka Fire station located at 4631 SR 4, Rosburg. Please note delivery will be paused for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Day.
