The Dansville Public Library is pleased to announce LOCAL HOLDS ONLY are now available at owwl.org.  Step one:  Check in to your account.  Step two:  Choose DANSVILLE as the  OWWL library.   Step three:   Mark the box “Limit to available items.”

When your holds are placed we will pull them from the shelf and call you with a pick up time.  For help, please call us at 585-335-6720.

In the sample below, I chose WOMEN DETECTIVES as the subject and I selected ALL BOOKS.  It’s essential to choose “Dansville Public Library” and to select “Limit to available items” to save time and frustration.  Pioneer Library System will eventually open this feature to ALL libraries’ materials but only when the progress of reopening in NY Forward is safer to allow the regular interchange of materials from library to library.

Thank you for your patience during the COVID-19 pandemic.  We hope to be open soon and we will keep you informed here.

You can start bringing back the things you have checked out!  Thank you so much for taking good care of them all these many weeks.  Please watch here for announcements about the starting date of modified library services.  We will be VERY GLAD to see you again very soon!

Dansville Library Staff

Less than 50% of us in Livingston County have filed our Census survey!  The Livingston County Complete Count Committee reminds us all:  From hospitals, libraries, and schools to roads, social programs, and highways, your response helps shape our County’s future!  In fact, your response is critical!  The Census determines how many representatives in State and Federal government will speak for us.  Our population numbers  help determine the total State and Federal funding for each of our communities.  Please file your Census TODAY!

Greetings from the Staff at Dansville Public Library during the COVID 19 shutdown:

ITEM #1 Please be sure to answer your Census 2020 filing! This is so important for state and federal funding resources. It really matters to YOUR LIBRARY! You can answer online, by telephone, and eventually by paper. Help protect live Census workers by using one of these easy social-distancing response methods! And do your part in Livingston, Steuben and Allegany Counties to achieve our goal of a COMPLETE COUNT this year.
