Tips from the Service Desk

Your library card expires every year so that we can ensure our information is kept up to date. Don't worry...all we need to see is your drivers license with your current Maitland address. If your drivers license does not list your current Maitland address, just bring in another document with your name and address in addition to your drivers license.

Did you know...
the library keeps all of the new books in a special section near the computers? These books are easy to locate thanks to the neon green tape on the spine of the books. Check it out!

Welcome!

Welcome to the newest feature of the Maitland Public Library; our blog. This is where you can learn about upcoming programs, library closures and general information. A blog is basically an online journal where the library can post information with the most recent entry listed first.

FYI: The word blog originates from the term weblog; web meaning online and log meaning journal or diary.
