In response to the COVID-19 surge, the Roseburg Public Library is temporarily closing the building and returning to expanded curbside service, beginning next week.

The library will be open on Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., prior to the closure.

Starting Tuesday, library staff will provide a different contactless, curbside delivery system than was previously offered.  The service will be available every Tuesday and Thursday from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and every Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. while the building is closed.

To take advantage of this option, patrons should log into their accounts and place holds at https://roseburg.biblionix.com/catalog/ using their library card and password. Patrons may also contact the library at 492-7050 or email: library@cityofroseburg.org to receive assistance.

Library staff will pull requested items from the shelves and check them out to patrons. To pick up materials, patrons should drive into the library parking lot, parking in spaces designated “Curbside Pickup Only”, remain in the vehicle and call the number on the sign. Staff will deliver materials to the vehicle.

Patrons may return all library items at any time in the outside book drop, which is located in the northwest corner of the parking lot.

The library’s digital platforms remain available 24/7.
