If you are new to Curbside Service, let me briefly explain: To sign-up, library card holders should visit www.gapines.org. Patrons can put on hold up to five items per day. Once the items are on hold, visit www.ngrl.org/curbside, complete the form and a member of the library staff will contact you to arrange pick-up. We have new hardback and paperback books for adults and children. We have the latest in Young Adult fiction. We have movies old and new. We have audiobooks. We have video games. We have the classics. Odds are, if there is a book you want to read, we can get it for you.
