If you still can’t find what you’re looking for, please call us at 501-918-3000 or use the “Need Help” chat feature.

Call us at 501-918-3000 or stop by any branch. If possible, please have your library card number ready when you call.

Hoopla has two kinds of limits: individual and collective. The individual limit is 7 items per month, and it only applies to your personal checkouts. The collective limit is for all checkouts across the whole system and depends on our budget. It resets at midnight every night and tends to fill up very quickly. If you’re having trouble accessing an item on hoopla, check to see if we also have it on the Libby app.

Yes! You can find our donation procedures, along with information on upcoming events on the CALS Used Book Sale page.

You can use your barcode (the number on the back of your card) and your PIN/password. Our website uses “PIN” and “password” interchangeably; your password and PIN are the same thing.

If you don’t remember your PIN and are having trouble resetting it, give us a call at 501-918-3000 or use the chat feature on our website.

You can park in our lot or parking deck. The entrance to the lot is on 2^nd street. The parking deck is beside the library; the entrance to the deck is on Rock street.

Staff at the front desk can validate your parking for two hours; just bring in the ticket that prints out at the gate entrance. Otherwise, parking is $2.00 per hour (the first 30 minutes are free).

All of our study rooms are first come, first served; no appointments are required. You may use the room for up to two hours, or longer if no one is waiting for the room.

The Main Library has a total of 16 study rooms. There are also two 1-person phone booths on the lower level.

All of our branches have study rooms as well, with the exceptions of Millie Brooks and Roberts.

Nope! You only need a card if you’d like to borrow books or other items, or to use certain services such as the Production Studio.

Your first ten pages printed each day are free (this applies to both black-and-white and color prints).

After the first ten, black-and-white prints are 10 cents/page, while color prints are 50 cents/page.

A double-sided page is counted as two pages.
