Woo hoo! Shelving is going back into the Sumas Library this week! In order to reopen, the building needs to receive an Occupancy Permit approval, and staff have not been given a date when this will happen. WLCS staff are doing what they can to have the library ready to go as soon as this permit is approved!

Follow the link to the survey, then pick up your game card on your next library or bookmobile visit. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/LZZKKCS

Did you know you are able to pick-up your requested items in Sumas even though the library building is still being repaired? Choose Sumas as your pick-up location to get started.

Items are brought to Sumas Mondays and Wednesdays and are placed in a lock box located near the street light across the parking lot from the building (see photo). You'll need the code to get into the box - it will be on your notification when you have something to pick-up. Items will be held in the lock box for one week. Items will get checked out to you the day following your notification, which means you will only get one notification that you have items ready (not the two as usual). If you have any questions or would like to pick-up items at another branch, please contact the Everson Libraryat 360-966-5100
