Dallas Public Library launches curbside pickup in 16 locations
Dallas Public Library launched “Curbside Pickup” in 16 library locations. Readers will be able to check out materials through the new Library To Go service, Tuesday through Saturday between 10:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.
Customers can request books, DVDs, CDs and hotspots through the library website or by phone. Once customers receive notification that their items are ready, they can call the designated location to schedule an appointment for pickup. When arriving at the library branch, customers will park in designated spaces and follow the posted instructions. Customers will pop the trunk and wait in the car for library staff to deliver the items.
Book return bins are open at the Library To Go locations only. Returned items will sit in quarantine for at least four days before they are checked in by staff. Currently the recommendation from the CDC and the library industry is to quarantine materials for at least 72 hours.

Libraries have been closed since the county’s shelter-at-home order in March. These plans were devised with a goal of resuming library service for the community in a way that protects library staff as well as the public. As COVID-19 orders improve, services will increase.
