Curbside

Curbside with Books To Go

Wicomico Public Library now offers curbside service. Books To Go allows you to safely pick up your library holds with minimal interaction with a library staff member. We ask that you allow at least 24 hours between when you place your hold and when you schedule your pickup time to allow us enough time to retrieve your materials.
