Library Services

The Sidney Memorial Public Library offers a variety of services such as photocopying, book renewal via telephone, home delivery, and Four County Library System book returns. We also offer faxing, photocopying, printing, C o l o r printing and photo scanning for a small fee.

The library is happy to have available to the public eight computers with Internet access as well as one Macintosh Computer for editing images, videos, and other media (the Macintosh is not available for Internet use). Express Internet access is provided for ages 17 and up. This allows patrons to check email, etc. without signing in to use a computer. All other computers are available for one hour. Three-hour usage can be arranged when required for research. Use of our computers is free, provided you review our Computer & Internet Rules and Policies and that a waiver card has been signed and completed.

You must have a library card with one of the Four Country Libraries to use the internet.
