Dear Library Patrons,
Did you know that the library provides home delivery service to individuals who are homebound for reasons of medical disability? Homebound residents can arrange for books, audiobooks, and other library materials to be delivered to their homes and picked up again when they are due. You are welcome to choose your own titles, or we will gladly help select titles appropriate to your interests and choice of format.
The program is available to those who are temporarily disabled and homebound, as well. This service is limited to residents within the Cornwall Central School District.
If you or someone you know would benefit from this service, please see our website and go to "About Us" and then "Homebound Delivery Program" for more information, or call 534-8282 and ask to speak to Mary Ellen or Charlotte.
