Library Services

Students collaborating and studying in a library, fostering education and diversity.

Library services include internet access, computer use, free apps, databases, statewide online resources, eLearning courses, in-person programs, reading challenges, printing, photocopying, puzzle swapping, book sales, tax forms, nature backpacks for hiking, museum admission passes, local history resources for genealogy, art exhibits, book club kits, tourist pamphlets and brochures, microfilm, DVD and Blu Ray movies and TV, and more. 

For most GHAL services, you will need an active library card in good standing or request a digital-only card.
