Everybody loves Libby. Everybody hates change.

Just like most other logins these days, Libby will soon ask for a second piece of information to make sure it’s really you trying to use your account. NO ACTION IS NEEDED AT THIS TIME!

WHAT IS CHANGING: At the moment, Libby only asks for your library account number (your library card’s barcode or your digital eCard number). You’ve only needed your PIN when accessing your library account, but soon you’ll also need it for your Libby account.

WHAT CAN YOU DO IN THE MEANTIME: You can get yourself ready by familiarizing yourself with your existing library PIN. If you can't recall your password, or if you’d like to choose a different PIN, any library staff member can reset it for you. Call, email, or stop by for a visit! We'd love to see you!

WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT: We’ll remind you about the upcoming change a few times to make sure everyone hears the news. Closer to the date when the change takes effect, we’ll alert you once again so your experience will be interrupted as little as possible.

Even if you’ve been logged into Libby for years, you’ll have to log back in one time after the change in order to enter your PIN.

Many libraries in Westmoreland County are co-hosting food drives with the Westmoreland Food Bank. You can find collection boxes at both Adams and Caldwell now through Sept 12!

Most needed items include: canned tuna/chicken; peanut butter; cereal (whole grain preferred); canned fruits and vegetables; mac & cheese; boxes meals (like Hamburger Helper) and canned meals (such as stew, chili, ravioli)

Seniors especially need low sodium vegetables and soup!

Please: NO EXPIRED FOODS, NO GLASS JARS

Attend our program on Monday, July 20 at 6:00pm and you could win a National Geographic SRT70MM refractor telescope with panhandle mount, solar filter, smart phone adapter and two eyepieces.

The USS Solstice Star Trek Club generously donated the telescope, which they will present to one lucky winner at the end of LUNAR ASPIRATIONS. Celebrate crewed space flight from the original moon landing through the Artemis planned landing in 2028 and beyond. You’ll even get some hands-on experience seeing what it’s like when meteors impact the moon.
