There’s a lot more than meets the eye at the Evans City Public Library.

Getting your library card: 

A library card is free to Butler County residents with proper identification. Your card is permanent and must be renewed each year. It entitles you to borrow materials from any of the 10 libraries within the Butler County Federated Library System.

Using your library card: 

You must present your card to check out materials. You may have any combination of 25 items checked out at one time, including:

  • Books, books on CD, and music CDs - 2 weeks ($0.25 per day if overdue)

  • DVDs - 3 days ($1 per day if overdue)

  • DVD Series are 1 week (DVD series are $1 per day if overdue)

  • Magazines are free to read as you please, but you cannot check them out (If magazines are by the windows with a sign stating to take, then you can take them and do not have to return them)

  • Puzzles are free to use and keep

 

Public Computers:

The Evans City Public Library has 3 computers available for public use. Our computers have high speed Internet access and Microsoft Office applications including Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint and Publisher.

If not, see if it is owned by any of the other libraries in the county. If they do, please see the front desk to ask for a hold on the item. If not, please fill out an Interlibrary Loan Request Form.
