Email Addresses are
Needed!
Have you updated your
email lately? Giving the library
your email address saves us a great deal of money we can spend on new material
rather than postage. Having your
email even allows us to send you a courtesy notice when your books are about to become overdue. That saves you money too. We never share email addresses with
others. In fact, we are prohibited
by state law from doing so.
Unfortunately many
people don’t think to give us their email or forget to update their records when
addresses change. Please do us and
yourself a favor, give us your email and keep us posted if your address
changes. Thank
you!
We hope you visit
us often to check out what’s new at the library or online at www.FDLPL.org
