Welcome to the next chapter at Paige Memorial Library!
As of July 1, 2021 the Paige Memorial Library will be a member of the
CWMars Interlibrary loan system
MassCat has treated us well; but wanting to offer our Patrons the best service possible, we are moving to CWMars starting July 1.
Those of you who already have a CWMars card from another library will use that card. Yes, Paige will be automatically registered as your home library and will get credit for your check-outs.
Those of you who need a CWMars card will get a new number and a new card the first time you check books out at the Paige.
We do not know yet if, as we change over, there may be some days when we cannot transact check-outs on our automated system . On those days we may be able to hand write the transactions. More about that on a later post.
Want to learn more about what you can expect from CWMars?
Limit your search if you would like by checking “item type”
Scroll down further and find “Location and Availability” “Library:”
Where it says “All libraries” select “Paige Memorial”
Check “Only items currently available for loan or reference”

Write down your requests, and call or email to arrange a time to pick them up!
Your books will checked out to your account
the order will go into a bag with your name or initials on it
the bag will be placed on the bench outside the library
In bad weather, look on the top step, or just inside the vestibule.
