Cultural Passes Currently on hold due to Covid-19

We now have Cultural Passes you can check out with your library card. These passes are for free admission to the AC Gilbert House, Stayton Memorial Pool, the

Oregon Garden, and the Evergreen Space & Aviation Museum. Passes can be reserved, are good for 3 days, and must be picked up and returned to the Lyons Public Library Circulation desk only. Adults can ask at the circulation desk for whatever pass they would like and use their library card to check it out. Now you are all set for some fun!

Changes to Basic Cards!

Beginning July 1, 2016, Chemeketa Cooperative Regional Library Service member libraries will raise limits for the number of items checked out from 1 to 10 for Basic library card holders. This includes residents of Polk, Yamhill, and Marion counties, and a small portion of Linn County, who live within the CCRLS district but outside of public library coverage. The number of holds allowed will also increase to 10.

Basic cards will remain free, as before. Totals for children using CARE cards will remain the same at 25 checkouts. Patrons may still purchase full service cards to receive the full allotment of 50 items checked out at a time. For more information, please contact the Lyons Public Library.
