Due to the temporary closing of the South End Library, due to an agreement with Age Strong, a shuttle service to the Parker Hill Branch will run on Mondays and Wednesdays and will accommodate 8 people with reservations for a 10AM pickup at the South End Library. The return will be at noon.

Parker Hill is a smaller branch where South Enders can get to know the staff as well as pick up and drop off books. If you want to pick up your "hold" books at Parker Hill, you will need to go to the bpl.org website, sign into your Account, and go to My Settings. Then select Account Preferences/Hold and Pickup Location/Change. There you can select Parker Hill and save your selection. The books you put on hold will then be sent to Parker Hill and you will be notified in the usual way when they arrive. There is no fee for "overdue" books; whenever the book is returned, the fee is removed.
