Are you looking for books that you can “check out,” but don’t have to worry about due dates or if you accidentally lose them? We can help you with that at the Spirit Lake Public Library!

We have a whole bookcase loaded with paperbacks that are not bar coded, and therefore, do not need to be officially “checked out.”

This shelf is located in the entry of the library. These books work well for out-of-towners, people who do not have a library card at the SLPL, someone going on vacation, snowbirds, etc. It’s an “on your honor” type system where you can take some paperback books, keep them as long as you need, and then bring them back when you are done.
