Buckham Memorial Library Browse-and-Go Visits by Appointment

In addition to No-Contact Curbside pickup, Buckham Memorial Library is now offering Browse-and-Go visits inside the library by appointment. At this time, you will be able to make a 30-minute appointment slot to browse and check out items from Buckham Memorial Library’s collection and pick up holds. Browse-and-Go will be available Monday – Friday with the first appointment beginning at 10 a.m. and the last appointment beginning at 5 p.m. To make an appointment for Browse-and-Go or No-Contact Curbside pickup, call the library at 507-334-2089, Monday – Friday from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.

Here is what you need to know for a successful Browse-and-Go visit to the library:

  • Stay home if you or anyone you live with is sick or has symptoms. Reschedule your appointment for another time when you and your family are feeling better.
  • Wear a mask.
  • Each person accompanying you will also need an appointment. Young people ages 15 years old and under must be accompanied by an adult caregiver while they are in the library.
