Welcome to Express Service
Wear your mask and come in! As a step toward full reopening, Ferndale Library now welcomes you for Express Service (short in-library visits). Please read about what Express Service is and how it works before your visit, and see Ferndale's Express Service Hours in the Contact Us section of this page. Of course, Curbside Delivery is still an option if you prefer it.

Ongoing events at Ferndale Library, when we have them, are listed at the bottom of this page.
If you also visit other libraries, be sure to check the list of library events that happen on an ongoing basis and on a regular schedule, such as weekly storytimes, monthly book discussions, quarterly film series, and annual Summer Reading Programs.

Ferndale Branch Library patrons have access to wireless internet and computing stations free of charge, thanks to a generous donation from Frontier Communications.
Secrets of the Library Catalog
You probably know that you can use the library catalog to place a hold on any book in our library system for delivery to your local branch.
But, were you aware that you can get an email alert when a new book arrives by a favorite author, or on a subject of interest to you?
You can also create a personal reading wish-list, and, if you like, keep a list of books you've checked out in the past (you can edit or delete these lists at will.)
Find out how by visiting the 'Search the Online Catalog' page.

The public library is the gateway to explore the world, spark the imagination, launch young minds or simply answer a question. You can help ensure our library will continue to inspire and meet the needs of the future by supporting the Humboldt Library Foundation.
