North Perth announces plans for curbside pickup services

The Municipality of North Perth has announced a plan for curbside pickup services for North Perth Public Library locations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In a release on May 25th, North Perth says they have developed a three-phase plan to begin curbside pickup services. As of now, book drop offs are open, so residents can make returns to all North Perth Public Library locations.

Due dates for all currently checked out materials have been extended and late fees suspended until the physical buildings re-open.

On June 1st, residents can begin placing holds on materials they wish to check out. Then, on June 8th, curbside pickups can begin at all three North Perth Public Library locations in Listowel, Monkton and Atwood. Staff will call residents who book materials to give details on how to pick up those items.
