Library
When the new catalog system is installed and running, you'll see another change - self-serve checkout at all of our Library locations.
Self checkout has already been a hit with Library users at Central and our newer buildings - it's fast, easy, and means less waiting in line. Look for it at Aurora Hills, Cherrydale, Columbia Pike and Glencarlyn, starting later in the week of Feb. 13.
Using self-check also frees Library staff to focus on our many other tasks, including helping patrons with account questions. And staff and volunteers will always be available to assist customers using self checkout.
How does self-check work? Watch this short video for a demonstration:
