NOLS expands Grab Bag service

The North Olympic Library System is now offering DVDs and music CDs in its Grab Bag service.

Each bag will contain up to 10 items from the library’s collection that can be picked up during curbside hours. Available items include books, audiobooks on CD, Playaways, music CDs and DVDs. Patrons should allow up to two business days for their request to be processed; automatic holds notifications will be sent when items are ready for pickup.

“We know that patrons miss the experience of browsing the Library’s shelves,” Library Director Noah Glaude said. “Grab Bags have provided a discover service that many users appreciate, so we are happy to add these formats.”

Curbside service is available at all NOLS branches from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays, and 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

For more information, visit www.nols.org or contact the library at 360-417-8500 or discover@nols.org.
