Go green, save Beebe library the cost of printing and postage, and get your library notices by e-mail! If we have your e-mail address in your library record, notices will be sent to you by e-mail rather than on paper. This includes our new courtesy notices, which are reminders sent two days before your items are due.

If you want to receive notices by e-mail, please make sure we have your current address. You can check this by logging in to your library account, where you can view, add, remove or change the e-mail address in your record. You can also have the library staff check this for you.

Your Library Account — More on logging in to your library record. You need a PIN to access your account, and to protect your library you must present identification and request a PIN at your library.

Ever since Beebe Library unveiled its new web site in 2008, a key element of the library’s web presence has been its repository of nearly 700 photos stored and publicly displayed on flickr.com. In addition to being neatly organized and categorized as collections of images on Beebe Library’s own flickr page, these photos are integrated and woven into every aspect of the library’s web site.

Program at library March 11 & 12
With all the cold weather and the annoyance of slush and snow, it seems like this winter has been particularly long. To get away from the cold, even for just a couple of hours, join reference librarian Jeff Klapes, the “Traveling Librarian,” for the first in a series of travel lectures – this one focusing on photographs of Ecuador, and a discussion of the geography, culture, and people of that country. The same program will be offered twice: Wednesday, March 11, at 10 a.m., and Thursday, March 12, at 7 p.m. at Beebe Library, 345 Main St., Wakefield MA. It’s free and advance signup is not required.
