RLD Delivery Service

We have a new service here at the library! If you are unable to access our physical library, we can bring your materials to you! Whether you are homebound, chronically ill, recovering from surgery, disabled, or unable to reach the library for any reason, be it long term or temporary, you deserve the same access to information and library materials as everyone else.

About the service:

Rampart Library District (RLD) Delivery Service provides library item delivery services at no cost to individuals who are members in good standing and who live within the Rampart Library District service area boundaries (RE-2). This service is open to all ages.

Guidelines

• If the patron does not have a library card, an application for a card can be filled out during the first delivery visit.

• Materials will be delivered to and picked up from each participant’s residence by library staff or volunteers.
• Patrons must protect all library materials while in their custody.
