Library Elf

O.k., raise your hand if you have trouble remembering when your books are due back at the library. Or, if you're anything like me, you might even have trouble remembering what or how many books you have out. Well, worry no more, Libraryelf.com is here to help. I think I 'm gonna deem it the "cool website of the week". All you have to do is go to the website, find the Autauga-Prattville Public Library listed by state, and click "sign up". Just give 'em a little info and...presto, instant emails sent to you letting you know what you have checked out, when it's due back, and what you have on hold. And best of all it's completely free.

So head on over there right now and open an account. You don't even have to think about it...there is no downside.

Note* Our library does require a 4-digit pin. If you don't already have yours just give us a call and we will be happy to get it for you.
