CALS Offers ‘Books by Mail’ to Homebound Patrons
The Central Arkansas Library System is offering a free "Books by Mail" service to those who live in Pulaski and Perry Counties, but are unable to leave home because of a temporary or permanent disability.
Interested individuals should complete the Books by Mail Service application (download here). Once the application has been processed, patrons may begin requesting materials. They may either select their own titles or complete an interest survey (download here) to have books selected for them. The limit for the first shipment is one item, however, once the first item is returned, up to four items may be requested at a time. Each shipment will be mailed in a reusable nylon bag and will contain a pre-paid postage label for the patron to return the materials.
Items that may be checked out through the "Books by Mail" program include books, books on CD, and books on audio-cassette in the CALS collection.
