Browsing Appointments

Appointments for indoor browsing are available starting at 10:15 AM each day (9:15 AM on Saturdays), then every hour on the hour until close. Patrons have 45 minutes from the start of each appointment block to browse, with the exception of the first appointment of the day, which is 30 minutes long. Time between appointments allows our staff to sanitize surfaces and materials for the next group of patrons. Please let us know if any other members of your household will be accompanying you or if you only plan on making prints/copies. We look forward to seeing you!

Interlibrary loans are BACK! Patrons can now order books from other libraries in the MAIN network for pickup at Wharton Library. Please be advised that wait times may be longer due to our quarantining procedures. Thank you for your patience!
