You will be notified when your items are available to pick up. You will have 10 days to pick up your items.

Please follow the same instructions as above for curbside pickup. Instead of placing items in your vehicle, library staff will place your items in a bag on the ground for you to pickup.

Library staff are available by phone to answer reference questions, recommend reading materials, and resolve account questions.

The book drops will be open 24/7 for your convenience.

What if I no longer want to check out the items I have on hold?

Please call 425-257-8010 and ask to cancel your holds.
