We are dedicated to fostering an accessible environment that caters to the information needs of every member of our community.

Large Print Book Collection – For those who have difficulty reading standard sized print books, the library maintains and updates a collection of large print books, both fiction and non-fiction. In addition, you may request copies of other books (standard and large print) delivered to the Linwood Library at no cost through Interlibrary Loan.
Electronic Resources – The library offers downloadable books, audiobooks, magazines, music, movies and television series through Libby and Hoopla. Anyone with a library card can make use of these services free of charge, allowing patrons access to a variety of information and entertainment without having to leave home. Library staff members are trained on how to set up new accounts and download materials and are available during library hours to assist patrons who are new to these resources or who need a refresher on how to use them.
We value inclusion and access for all participants and are pleased to provide reasonable accommodations for all events and activities.
If you need specific accommodations, such as sign language interpretation, for any of our events or activities, whether on-site or online, please get in touch with us at 609-926-7991 or email at linwoodlibrary@linwoodlibrary.com.
