Make the Most Out of Summer @ GPL

There’s so much to do at GPL during the summer. If you’re already here for our Summer Reading Program, make sure to try these other offerings we have all year round:

We recently updated our Museum Pass offerings. These are available all year round, but demand increases significantly during the summer months. We’ve made some changes to the reservation process, so if you’ve used the program before, be sure to brush up on the latest!

If you’re traveling or want to time your holds so they don’t all come in at once, use the Pause Holds feature available through your account in the catalog. This retains your place in line until you’re ready to resume – a favorite feature for many of our power users. Find the title you want to pause, click “Pause hold”, and select your dates. For more info, check out this help page.

Need help building your summer reading list? Fill out a Book Match form, or browse our curated lists created by GPL staff here.

Or if you want to have the fastest access to hot new titles from GPL’s most popular authors, check out the Book My Favorites service, with automatic holds available on authors like Kristin Hannah, David Baldacci, Ann Patchett, and many more!

And so much more – stop by a service desk and tell us what your favorite service is at the Library!
