SUMMER READING

SUMMER READING Frequently Asked Questions:
Do you have copies of the school summer reading books?
Yes! we purchase multiple copies of the books on the Miles River Middle School and Hamilton-Wenham Regional High School summer reading lists.
To place a hold on a book, click on the title link below. This will take you to the online catalog for our consortium (MVLC).  Find the item you want and click on "Place Hold."  You will be prompted for your library card barcode number, and your PIN (which is the last 4 digits of your telephone number unless you have changed it).  If all H-W copies are out, and the book is on the shelf at another MVLC library, it takes about 3 days for it to travel here to the Hamilton-Wenham Library.
You will be notified by phone call or email when your book arrives (you can add/change your email by signing in to your account). After you are notified you have 7 days to come to the Library to check out the book before it goes back to the owning Library.
I can keep my books all summer, right?
No, you may keep them out for 3 weeks.
Hamilton-Wenham summer reading books are not renewable.
Golden rule applies here (Do unto others....). 
Where are the books?
During the summer the books are on the second floor under the Young Adult sign.
MRMS and HWRHS summer reading lists are printed and displayed next to the books.
Are these books available in audio format?
Many of the summer reading titles are available as audio books. They may be on CDs, Cassettes, or Playaways for physical check out, and they may be available digitally in Overdrive to download.  Not all titles have been made into audio books.

If you have questions - ask!  We’ll do our best to answer your question, so don’t be shy.
