Need some new books to read? Hamilton City Libraries are proud to offer a book-borrowing service: Library Click and Collect.

How does it work?

Simply select which book pack is right for you from the four choices below, fill out the online form or call our friendly library staff and we will create a pack based on your personal reading preferences. You can request a book pack of up to ten books that will be then set aside for you to collect at a date  and library of your choosing. It’s your pack so let us know the genres and the subjects you would like to see included and we will endeavour to find you the books we know you will love.

Note: you will need your library card in order to request the Click and Collect service. 

Alternatively you can call your preferred library during opening hours, and place your order over the phone:

No, unfortunately we cannot allow the extension of borrowing limits for the Click and Collect service.

Please contact your pick up library as soon as possible, so that we may organise an alternative pick up time.

Click and Collect packs currently have no limit on how many books you can request. Keep in mind the current library borrowing limit is 50 items. 

 

No, we will not be including DVD's, Magazines, Kits, Talking Books, or Puzzles in the Click and Collect packs. You can still access our eAudiobooks, eMagazine and Beamafilm. More info on these services are on our eCollections page.

Unfortunately not. The online services will still be available for you.

Yes, please fill in the appropriate field in the online form or let staff know when booking via the phone. Your nominated pick up person will need to have your library card number.

Click and Collect can be booked via our website (click on one of the links above) or by calling your local library.

We aim to have your Click and Collect bundle ready for pick up within 48 hours of your order. Please note that due to limited staffing numbers and high demand this may change. We appreciate your understanding.
