Holds Changes
2010 brings many budget cuts for Allegheny County public libraries and an ever-increasing demand for library services. Effective February 1, there will be some changes to how requests are fulfilled in an effort to manage costs and provide faster service. The system will give priority to requests that can be fulfilled at any pickup location by that local library rather than strictly using the date the request was placed. This is intended to reduce the amount of transportation time for material delivery to the requesting customer. We regret that this change will mean that you can no longer see your position in the request queue through My Account, but our goal is to continue to provide faster service within the current budget restrictions.
COLOR COPIES @your library! Eastridge & our main library both have new copiers that will provide color and black & white copies. Documents from flash drives or another portable media can be printed as well. Ask a staff person how to print your important documents.
