Trent Hills Public Library Curbside Pickup Service
The Trent Hills Library Main Branch in Campbellford is offering a limited curbside pickup of library materials during the COVID-19 situation. Curbside pickup will be extended to the Warkworth and Hastings Branches in the near future. Please read the following information carefully to find out how this service works. Please note that this service will not apply to any children’s materials. If you would like a selection of children’s books, please contact your branch by email and we will provide curbside pickup of 10 book “mystery bags” for your children based on their age and interests. Here’s how to participate in the Curbside Pickup service:
1.Log into your account at trenthillslibrary.ca and choose “login to my account / catalog search” (you will log in at the top with your library card number and PIN – if you have trouble logging in, please contact your branch by phone, or email warkworthlibrary@trenthills.ca and we can help)2.Search for your item, by choosing title, keyword or author from the “fields” box and you will be given a list of items in our system3.**IMPORTANT** once you have a list of items, you MUST CHECK OFF THE CAMPBELLFORD BRANCH from the “limit search results tab” on the left and hit the “include” button – this will give you only results from our main library. During this stage of curbside pickup service, you will only be able to borrow books from the main branch.4.Once you have chosen “place hold” from beside the items on your list, ensure that your pickup location is CAMPBELLFORD and your request will be processed by the library and you will receive a phone call to let you know when the book will be available for curbside pickup.5.Curbside pickup will occur for between 9am and 1pm on Tuesdays and Wednesday and Thursdays, in Campbellford . Please only come for your books after you have received a phone call from the library.6.When you arrive at the Library, PLEASE PARK IN FRONT OF ONE OF THE NUMBERED CONES, REMAIN IN YOUR CAR AND CALL THE MAIN BRANCH BY PHONE Campbellford: 705 653 3611 If you are walking to the library, call us and let us know you are arriving and we will place you books out in front of the doors of the library for pickup.7.To avoid contact, staff will come outside and leave your items in a plastic bag IN FRONT OF THE CONE for you to retrieve after the staff member returns into the branch.8.When returning your items, please drop the items in the drop box. There will be no overdue charges applied for any items that you are borrowing during this time. All items being returned will remain in quarantine and then disinfected before being recirculated.
Should you wish to have a selection of books chosen for you by Library Staff, we can also offer that service. Patrons wishing to have a bag of books selected according to an interest or an author should contact their library branch and we can pick a bag of books that we think you would enjoy for pickup. This is a new service for the Trent Hills Library, so please bear with us as we navigate these new procedures. Both your safety and the health and well-being of our staff are very important to us, and we are following safety guidelines developed with with our local health unit.

Trent Hills Community
Premier Doug Ford recently announced that libraries could reopen for curbside pickup as of Tuesday May 19 /2020. Although this is exciting news for our library community, we feel that moving to curbside pickup will need be a very slow process to maintain the highest levels of safety for patrons and staff.
The Trent Hills Public Library Board met yesterday to discuss our Curbside Pickup Plan and we hope to launch, beginning with the Campbellford Branch Library, sometime next week. More information will be available soon with instructions to follow. These instructions will be available on the website https://trenthillslibrary.ca/ on Facebook and by calling 705-653-3611.
These are unprecedented times for everyone and I just want to take a moment to recognize and thank all of the Trent Hills Public Library Staff and Board Members for their amazing dedication, commitment and creativity during this difficult and challenging time. And I would like to thank everyone in the community for your support and patience.
We are all working hard to bring you back to a Library that is safe for everyone to enjoy. And we hope that in the interim you have been able to enjoy some of the new content we have added to our online systems!

Chairman Trent Hills Public Library Board
