Frequently Asked Questions ​
Can I return my books and movies?
No. All books and movies should be kept with you and returned only when the library reopens.

Can I borrow books and movies?
Only e-books and downloadable audio books on Libby and streaming videos on Kanopy can be borrowed at this time. To ensure the safety of our community, materials in the library building cannot be circulated at this time. If there is something you'd like to borrow once we re-open, you can place a hold on the item by logging into your account or call 603-744-3352 or email at minotsleeperlibrary@gmail.com.

Can I pick up something that is on hold or was ordered through interlibrary loan?
Not at this time. We have these books and DVDs safely on hold for you at the library and will give you an opportunity to come in and pick them up once the library re-opens to the public.

What if I want to borrow e-books, downloadable audiobooks, digital magazines, and streaming videos, but I don't have a library card?
Easy! We can sign you up for a library card over the phone. Just give us a call at 603-744-3352 during our regular hours (Mon, Wed, Fri 10am-6pm; Tue and Thur 1-8pm; Sat 10am-2pm). We will confirm with you that you live in one of the towns in the Newfound Area School District, ask you a few other questions, and within minutes you will have access to digital materials!

The library's wifi is still on. If you need to connect to the internet with your own mobile device, you can stand outside of the library's entrance while maintaining social distancing and connect to the wifi network TOB Library Public. There is no password required to connect.
