Van route updates and information

There will be no Capitol District route this week. Starting 7/13, and until further notice, the Capitol District route libraries will receive delivery on Mondays until further notice. If you would like to come to the State Library to pick up your bin, we are open Monday-Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM. You can call 603-271-2616 if you would like to give us a heads up that you’re on the way, but it’s not required.

Also, until further notice, we will be running two North Country “hub-style” make up routes. Please see below for the details on those routes, and thank you to the libraries that have agreed to be pick-up/drop-off locations. 

North Country Hub Route #1- Thursdays

o    Drop your bins off at any of those hub libraries to simply return your ILL materials.  
o    IF YOU ALSO WANT TO PICK UP YOUR REQUESTED ILL MATERIALS, please email  nhslill@dncr.nh.gov to tell us which hub library to leave your bin by 2:00 pm July 8. Moving forward, we will plan on dropping off your bin at the hub library “of record” until we hear otherwise.
