Changes to Text Message Notifications

Due to recent mobile phone car­ri­er restric­tions, we’ve moved to a new ser­vice to send check­out receipts, hold noti­fi­ca­tions, and over­due notices to patrons via text message.

Some changes you can expect to see: 

• Library account text mes­sages will arrive from a dif­fer­ent num­ber. These mes­sages are from our new ser­vice and are not spam. 

• All mobile cus­tomers are now able to receive text mes­sages. Under our pre­vi­ous ser­vice, Sprint and T‑Mobile cus­tomers could not receive text notifications.

• Pre-over­due notices will no longer go out through text mes­sages. If you would like to receive pre-over­due notices, we rec­om­mend sign­ing up for email noti­fi­ca­tions.

If you would like to change your noti­fi­ca­tion pref­er­ences at any time, you may do so by updat­ing the set­tings on your library account. Staff at your local branch can also update your noti­fi­ca­tion pref­er­ences. Be sure to bring your library card or ID for the update.
