Introducing Themed Book Boxes

Posted on:

Our Adult Services Librarians are thrilled to introduce a new borrowing experience for HPL readers: themed Book Boxes! Because who doesn't love an adorable package filled with books and goodies!?

How it works:

  1. For each batch of boxes, you can choose your Book Box experience from one of two themes. Each box contains two books and some extra surprises.
  2. When you get notified that your hold is ready, pick up your box and enjoy the books and extra goodies inside.
  3. Return your box and books six weeks later. The extra surprises inside are yours to keep!

The finer details:

  • You must have a Helen Plum library card to reserve a box.
  • One Book Box at a time per library card.
  • Book Boxes are limited to adult patrons only.*
  • You must return your box and books to be eligible for the next box.

*Looking for themed bundles for youth? We've got lots! Check out our selection of themed Youth Backpacks that come with a variety of books and learning games inside. (Please note that, unlike the adult Book Boxes, everything in our Youth Backpacks must be returned to us.)
