Geneva Public Library has launched drive-thru service! To check out books, go to gpld.org and place a hold through our online catalog. We'll call you when your books are ready for pick-up at our drive-thru window at 227 S. Seventh St.

Return your books anytime at our book drop. Procedures require us to hold your returns for seven days before those materials can be checked out again. No late fees apply!

The Library is closed to in-building service until further notice following Gov. Pritzker's Stay at Home Order. We are working on plans for limited in-building service, and we’ll post updates at gpld.org as we have more information.
