Forbes Library Expands Home Delivery




Forbes Library now offers pick up and delivery services of library materials to residents of Northampton, Leeds and Florence. Residents of any age with an underlying health condition or illness and anyone aged 65+ regardless of health status are eligible for this free service. Contactless deliveries are made within one week of request.

"We know how comforting people have found reading and viewing during this difficult time and we hope our new Pandemic Delivery Service makes access to library materials easier for people," said Lisa Downing, Forbes Library Director. In addition to delivery, library staff can also help pick out books and movies based on interest.
