Readers Services
A corner of the library just for you. Looking for a good book? A new author? The Readers Services Staff will help you find the right book for you in the library or assist you with interlibrary loan—borrowing books from libraries all over Michigan.
We also have great resources on our website, including the ability to keep track of all the books you check out via your account in the library catalog and the ability to merge family records and receive email reminders via Library Elf. There are also resources on our website for locating new bestsellers, mysteries, romance novels, nonfiction, and audio books.
Reading Groups
The library has created book discussion kits that can be checked out at the information/readers services desk for up to 6 weeks. We have collected copies (five or more) of several titles and included discussion questions and information about each title and author. CHECK THEM OUT.
Call the library at (269) 429-9575 to reserve a kit. There is a list below of available titles and all titles are in our catalog. Or stop by and browse the collection—just look for the blue baskets in the reference department. A single patron can check out all the titles and they will be placed in a Lincoln Township Library bag for transport.
