Rental Books or, "What is everyone reading now?"
What? The Middletown Public Library has a rental collection of BEST SELLERS to enhance the regular collection. The rental book collection provides library users with an option for obtaining popular fiction and non-fiction titles. Some titles are so popular that a lot of people reserve them. If you do not wish to put a book on reserve and wait...the RENTAL BOOKS are for you!
Why? Several years back, the library did have a very popular rental book program that was discontinued. On our Spring Community Survey, patrons overwhelmingly responded (96.4%) that they wanted the Library to bring back the Rental Books.
How? Find a book on the rental book cart, and rent it for $0.25 per day. Pay the rental fee when you return the book to the circulation desk. Rental Books are available on a first come, first served basis. They cannot be reserved. The Library will continue to purchase free copies that may be placed on reserve.
Where? The collection is located on a wooden book cart directly across from the Circulation Desk.
