-
Please take care of your Tablet Kit. Fees will apply if the tablet, or any accessory is lost or damaged. Library card privileges will be suspended until the Tablet Kit is returned or charges on the account are paid.

You can check the availability of tablets at your local branch by searching "tablet lending" in the library catalog or by calling any branch. If tablets are not available, you may place a Tablet Kit on hold. Only one hold is allowed per library account. Once you are notified that your Tablet Kit is available, you will have seven business days to pick it up at your selected library location.
