2012 Park and Read Program

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources, and the Library of Michigan are partnering up this spring and summer to help Michigan families enjoy the great outdoors. Waterford Library cardholders will be able to "check out" a park pass that will be good at any Michigan State park, recreation area , Michigan Historical Museum System site or museum. The pass is good for one day of a 7-day loan period and covers the motor vehicle permit fee (state parks and recreation areas). The program starts April 1st and runs through October 1st 2012. Some parks will have hammocks available to "check-out" while you are visiting the park. Patrons must have a card issued by the local library they check the pass out from. Please confirm park hours and amenities prior to your visit.

Pay your library account balance from any internet connection

Waterford Library patrons now have the ability to pay their library account balance from the convenice of their home or any web browser accessing our web site. Using the PayPal system you can pay with Visa, Mastercard, Discover Card or American Express, as well as from your own PayPal account if you already have one. Simply log into your account and if you have a balance follow the steps as provided. For a more detailed tutorial follow this link.

Minimum payment amount is 5 dollars.  You can pay any individual bill or multiple billed items.

You will need your library card number, your pin number and either PayPal or credit card information.

The Library has ebooks

One of the questions we're being asked most frequently lately is, can I borrow ebooks from the library to put on my Nook, iPad, or Kindle (and some other devices, too)? The answer is, yes! Go to our Download Destination site, powered by Overdrive. You'll need to be a Waterford or Lake Angelus resident, and know your library card number and pin. And you'll likely need to use the Help feature at the top of the Download Destination home page to see how to do it. Tip: once you're ready to check something out, if you want to find something that is available for checkout right then, use the advanced search, pick your format, check off "only show titles with copies available", and then click "search".
