New Books

New books arrive at Killingworth Library on a regular basis. Patrons may reserve books in person at the library or by calling 663-2000 during open hours.

Most new titles circulate for 2 weeks, rather than the usual 3 weeks for older titles. 2-week books may be renewed in person or by phone if there is no waiting list. The new book section is located to the left of the library entrance, across from the circulation desk.
