What’s happening at Martinborough Library

The next time you come in to borrow items, try using the self-issue function newly enabled on the Wairarapa Library Service (WLS) app. All you need to do is ensure you have downloaded the app on your smartphone and logged into your library account (using your borrower number and PIN). Information about downloading and using the WLS app is available on wls.org.nz/bookapps. 

Alternatively, pop in and see us if you need help loading and/or using the app. This doesn’t mean we have stopped serving customers at the counter. You will always be welcome to check your items out that way. Self-issue is an option for your convenience: for example, if you’re in a hurry and there’s a queue of customers ahead of you, you can simply use the WLS app on your phone and issue the item to yourself without having to wait.

Homelink delivery service is now available throughout South Wairarapa including Martinborough. If for any reason you can’t visit the library but would like to have books delivered to you instead, we invite you to make use of this free service. Every three weeks we will drop off up to 12 books and collect items you are returning. To ensure we choose the best books for you, we will ask you a few questions about your reading preferences. You can sign up for Homelink either online (wls.org.nz/librarytoyou) or call us on 308-9030.
