What is Outreach?
The Sycamore Public Library offers free delivery of materials to residents unable to visit the Library because of age, illness, disability, or other incapacitating circumstances.
Delivery is scheduled according to temporary or long term needs, and services are always tailored to your personal preferences.

What can I request?
Any material that can be checked out can be requested through Outreach. You may request specific titles, or our staff will be happy to select materials based on your interests. If the Library does not own an item you would like to read, we can try to borrow it from another library. Basic reference information is also available by phone.

How many items will I receive?
This depends on your preference. Most people find that 4 to 5 items per delivery is enough to keep them engaged. We can adjust the number and type of material at any time.
When will I receive the materials?
Materials are delivered to your door once a month by friendly staff or volunteers. Mutually convenient delivery times will be arranged.
How do I register for this service?
If you or someone you know can benefit from this service, please contact Debbie Norris at
815-895-2500 or fill out the form on the reverse side of this brochure and mail it to us. We will contact you after reviewing the form.
