WOO-HOO!! We are SUPER-EXCITED about our NEW online catalog software!
This new (USER-FRIENDLY) software allows you to easily search our collection and to conveniently access your library account!

TWO-WAY TEXTING! Ask us a question and renew items!

A BRAND-NEW feature that we’ve just added, is the ability for YOU to RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGE NOTIFICATIONS! You’ll be able to see: what’s due, overdue warnings, and reserve (hold) notifications!

We can automatically email you your checkout receipt!

Access the Nebraska OverDrive collection right from our catalog!

HAVE ANY FAVORITE AUTHORS?? – Click the “receive new books” link and a list of popular authors will appear. Select your favorite(s) from the list and a reserve will automatically be placed for you when any new titles arrive at the library!

The painters are making progress! The ceiling and some of the walls are finished being painted! We can’t wait for everyone to see everything, after it’s finished!

It’s been an EXCITING WEEK at CCPL! Not only did we begin our INTERIOR PAINTING PROJECT, we also had BRAND NEW LIBRARY SOFTWARE installed!

The prep work for the painting project (ceiling and main areas of library) took up most of this week. Yesterday, the vaulted ceilings began getting sprayed with paint. NEXT WEEK, the walls and door/window trims will be worked on.We’ll keep you posted as to when we’ll be reopening to the public.

Thank-you to everyone for your patience!

As you can see from the photos, there is a TON of prep work involved! Almost everything in the main area is encased in plastic. Library staff are available throughout the work week, to answer questions, empty book drop, fill curbside pick up requests, etc.Monday-Friday 9am-5pm at 308.946.2512

Due dates are being extended for all items currently checked out. Items may be returned to the library via our book drop.Free WiFi will continue to be available to users, around the exterior of our building (no password required).
