BRADFORD Libraries’ new ‘Order and Collect’ service for books will now be available in Ilkley, Laisterdyke and Wyke Libraries from this week.
The new book ordering service gives people the opportunity to reserve books from the Bradford Libraries online catalogue or by phoning the library. The service was launched in early July and Bradford Council says nearly 3,000 people pre-ordered and collected books in the first three weeks.
Three more libraries will be offering the ‘Order and Collect’ service which allows customers to be able to collect their book orders at an agreed time slot from a single collection point in each library.
All 29 of Bradford's libraries to remain open - but some could be in new buildings
Customers will also be able to return their books when they collect their orders or can return them at any time without booking a slot. To help customers make book choices and discuss reading preferences, library staff will also be available via phone and email and will put together a pack of books for customers.
Ilkley Library will open its doors from Thursday and will be open Monday to Saturday 10am– 3pm and will close for lunch 12.30-1pm
