New Books at Lake Wales Public Library - Week of Dec. 8

The Lake Wales Public Library, with the assistance of lakewalesnews.net, has revived a tradition that existed in our local weekly newspaper for many years, the publication of a sampling of new books available at our library. The list will be updated weekly.

The Lake Wales Public Library continues to offer safe door-side pickup of materials during our current hours of operation. Call the library to request that holds are placed on items for pickup at the Lake Wales Public Library, or safely delivered via mail through the Polk County Library Cooperative's BMail service.

Feeling adventurous, library staff will be happy to "shop our shelves" for you, selecting materials that you might like.

You can place holds via the library's website, http://www.lakewalesfl.gov/library, click the My Account button at the top of our homepage. Download the new Polk County Library Cooperative mobile app. Search the Apple Store or Play Store for the Polk County Library Cooperative mobile app.

You will need your library card number and PIN number to place holds with the app or online.

For assistance call the Lake Wales Public Library, 863.678.4004, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. or email [email protected] with questions or comments.
