A New Library Catalog for the Westchester Library System!
Starting March 14, ALL of the public libraries in Westchester County will be moving to a new catalog system
In order for the change to happen, the WLS library catalog at www.westlibs.org will be offline from March 11 through March 13.
Important Information
You will need either your physical library card or a scan of your library card on a phone in order to check anything out at The Hart Library from March 11 through March 13. Reciting a number from memory WILL NOT be accepted. We will not be able to look up your library card with your ID from March 11 through March 13.
No items will be due for the period March 11 through March 18.
There will be a limit of 3 total items per checkout from March 11 through March 13.
Renewals will not be possible from March 11 through March 13.
No holds will be delivered from March 11 to March 13.
Important news about your checkout history
If you are someone who has opted in to the feature which allows your borrowing history to be saved (allowing us to ask you, “do you know you’ve already checked this book out?”), please be aware that starting March 11, your checkout history will become unavailable. This information will not be migrating to our new computer system. If you would like to receive a printout of your checkout history, please ask a circulation clerk before March 11 and we will provide it to you for your records.
We would be glad to answer any questions about the changes at 914-245-5262.
Thank you in advance for your patience as we move to an improved catalog.
