Smithtown Building Closed

Due to the storm that occurred during the early morning hours of August 19, which caused torrential flooding, our Smithtown Building suffered catastrophic damage to its lower level. Therefore, until further notice, our Smithtown Building will be closed while we continue to assess the damage and begin to rebuild.  Our other three buildings remain open to assist our patrons.

Overdue Items & Fees

The Library does not charge fines on most late items. You will be liable for replacement costs for any materials that are lost or damaged. You will be liable for extended use fees on Book Club Kits, mobile hotspots, Library of Things items, Museum Passes and inter-loaned items.

An extended use fee may range depending on the overdue item. Extended use fees never exceed one-half the cost of the item. A schedule of these fees appears below.

Any extended use fees for items past their due date will be applied to your circulation record. There will be no extended use fee for a closed holiday if the item is returned the first day the Library reopens.

You will be alerted at the Circulation Desk if you have overdue items and/or unpaid extended use fees. Borrowing privileges will be suspended when a bill has been sent for overdue materials or more than $5.00 is owed to the Library.

Mobile Hotspots $1.00 $10.00
