Our Collection
Our book collection numbers more than 8,000 volumes, with more titles added each month. There are fiction and non-fiction books for children, young adults and adults. In addition, we have an extensive selection of DVDs, videos, audio books and periodicals. If we don’t have what you want we can probably get it for you at no cost through inter-library loan.
E-Books
Children’s ebooks are available by clicking here. We have several science books and a story book from ABDO Digital. These are a lot of fun! Use worthlib and riceebooks for your username and password on the login screen.
Computers
High-speed internet access is currently available in both the library, and outside. We have three computers for use by the public during library hours – or you can bring your laptop and access the internet at any time from our parking lot, street, or outside the door of the children’s room where there is an outdoor electrical plug.
Inter-Library Loan
You may request a book through inter-library loan by phone (413-238-5565) or by email (theworthingtonlibrary@gmail.com). Tell us the title and author and include your name, phone and member number or library card number. We will call you when your book, DVD, or other material is ready to be picked up.
