Library2You: New outreach service added at the Bay Village Branch Library

This past September, the Cuyahoga County Public Library debuted a new outreach service for home bound individuals. Called Library2You, this free service for residents of Cuyahoga County mails library materials to residents who are unable to visit the library due to a permanent or temporary impairment or disability. 

Customers only need to fill out an application, provide proof of Cuyahoga County residency, and have a library card. Once eligibility is confirmed, the service begins. 

To order materials, the customer calls the branch. Library staff will request materials which will arrive at the customer’s home via the U.S. Postal Service. Returning the items is just as easy. Just  use the mail pouch the items arrived in, flip the address card, and place it in or near the mailbox. 

The same stipulations apply to these items as to all library materials: 50 items on one card and a three-week loan period. The library is pleased to make its materials available to everyone, and we’re glad to do our part to expand the world for all customers. This service is one more way that at the Cuyahoga County Library, browsing is just the beginning. 

Interested customers may call the Bay Village Branch library at 871-6392 for more information and to request an application.
