Pick-up Window Service

NEW DRIVE-UP, PICK-UP WINDOW OPEN!

On Saturday, April 22, 2023 the new drive-up pick-up window opens!

How to use the LLD Pick-up window:

Place your items on hold: Visit the LLD online catalog and place the items you would like on hold. If you need assistance placing a hold, please call 630-971-1675 and listen for the phone prompts to direct you to a Librarian, or email adultservices@lislelibrary.org or youthservices@lislelibrary.org.

  1. Verify that your items are ready: After 24 hours, log into your Library card account to confirm that your items are available. They will have a status of ‘Held’ when available.  
  2. Schedule your pick-up: Once your items are available, call the Library at 630-971-1675/press 6, or email Circulation Services at circ@lislelibrary.org to schedule a date and time for your pickup (we keep holds for a total of 7 days).
  3. Pick-up your items: At the time of your scheduled pickup, drive to 777 Front Street, and enter the south parking lot off of Kingston Avenue.  Drive around the building and pull up to the service window on the north side of the Library. Ring the doorbell for service or call 630-971-1675/press 6, to let us know you have arrived. A staff member will open the service window and hand you the items. Please bring your Library card with you.

CAN I SCHEDULE A SAME DAY PICK-UP? Yes! Patrons must call the Circulation Department directly for a same day pick-up: 630-971-1675/press 6 (no email requests for same day). Staff require one hour to prepare your items for pick-up.
