UPDATE: 6/15/2020

Dear Readers:

Your Public Library is now open for Curbside Pickup! Your librarians have been busy these past few weeks getting new materials for the collection ready for your reading/watching/listening/playing pleasure. How does it work? Let's take a look:

Check out What's New at Ridgefield Park (on BCCLS.org) and click on either books, videos (includes movies and video games), sound recordings (includes audiobooks and music), or large print. This will show you the most recent things we've added.
OR search the BCCLS catalog and Highlight For or Limit To Ridgefield Park to look through your collection.
Remember, you can always email us a title recommendation if you don't see what you want available.
Call or email the library (rfpkcirc@bccls.org) with your library card. A librarian will pull the item that you want and check it out to you.
Setup a pickup time from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.
Stop by the library and follow the designated markers and signs (be sure to maintain social distance!).
Give the librarian your name, we will put your designated bag on the table, when the staff member steps away you can then pick up your items.

Keep in mind there still are a few things we're still trying to work out for the betterment of our readers:

Requests for materials from other libraries are unavailable at this time.
Computers, copiers, fax, and printers are still unavailable.
The book drop will be open all day. Please do not hesitate to return items there.
Restrooms and water fountains are closed to the public due to health concerns.
If possible, please return items to their home libraries.
All programs, meetings, events and clubs are being offered via digital clubrooms.
