The Northborough Free Library is launching its Library on the Go program. The objectives of the program are to engage homebound Northborough residents, determine their library and information needs, and deliver library materials including print and non-print materials so that they can continue to read, listen and view items tailored to meet their recreational interests.
The goal is to help Northborough residents who happen to be home-bound feel connected to the community. Individuals who are interested in this service must register their information with the library.
Patrons will be able to select specific materials via email or have materials chosen by library staff, checked out of the library using a current library card, and delivered to their homes by Volunteer Library Couriers.
All circulating library materials, including books, magazines, recorded books, DVDs, and music CDs will be delivered to the resident’s home for a fixed loan period.
A group of Volunteer Library Couriers have been recruited to deliver and retrieve Library materials.
