Homebound

We are so excited to announce a new service for the Hyrum Library. Please see the FAQ's, or call the library for any questions 435-245-6411

What is Homebound Library Service? 

This is a service that provides library access to homebound patrons in the library's service area of Hyrum, Nibley, and Wellsville. This service allows those who are homebound due to health restrictions or disabilities access to the public library. Patrons who sign up for this service will have library materials delivered to their door once a month, by our library volunteers.

Who can participate?

To qualify for homebound services, a library patrons must: 

• Live in the library services area: Hyrum, Nibley, or Wellsville
  • Or pay for a non-resident library card
• Have a library card in good standing
• Be unable to physically visit the library on their own or with the help of a care team. 

How does it work?

Simply fill out a homebound application, if you do not currently have a library card, one will be assigned to you. Fill out your preference such as specific authors or subjects. We will select items, and bring them to your door. You check them out for one month. At the end of the loan period, we will exchange the checked out items with new items. 

What can I Borrow?

You may borrow most things that the library offers.

Items NOT permitted for a Homebound card include: 

• DVD's
• STEAM kits
• Board games 
• Items with a Large hold limit
   

How do I sign up?

Simply fill out this application, or reach out to Beth at 435-245-6411. Sign-up is on going. If you already have a library card, we ask that you still fill out an application and we will take care of the rest.
