Just In Time For Veteran's Day...

Stop by the library and see the wonderful collection of GI Joes displayed in the cases near the doors.  Thanks to Georgia Tipper for sharing this display with us.  Also, we have several books about the military on display in the children's department.  Take a book home today!

Downloadable Books--The Orange Advantage Logo

Downloadable eBooks and audio are very popular. For many titles there are consortium-wide waiting lists. For this reason, the Decatur Public Library has chosen to purchase extra copies of popular books and new titles that can be checked out only by Decatur residents. These books are designated by the "Advantage" logo, which looks like this:
In order to access the Decatur copies of these books, you MUST LOG-IN FIRST with your library card number before you begin to search or browse. After logging in, the Decatur Advantage titles will then be displayed.
