We will send library materials to your home through the mail, free of charge. Materials are delivered in a re-usable mailbag, which also includes a return address label and return postage. When you’re done, simply put the materials back in the bag, affix the address label and postage, and give that package to your mail carrier to return to us. Once one set of materials is returned, we will send you another, based on either your specific request or your general preferences.
