How does this all work?
When you get a notice that your item(s) is "ready for pickup" at MacKay, you can either call us at the MacKay branch library, during open hours, or use the form above (any time) to request a locker pickup.
During the current, or next open hours for MacKay, we will confirm whether or not a locker is available. If one is available, we will check out the item(s) to you, put them in the locker, and give you instructions for retrieving them. If a locker is not available we will let you know that.
How many lockers do you have at the MacKay branch library?
We have 8 lockers in total.
What types of materials can be put in a locker?
We do not put electronics, museum passes, or "Library of Things" items in the lockers. Otherwise, we don't have any restrictions for the type of item, other than the dimensions of the lockers: 8.63 inches wide x 17.5 inches tall x 17.5 inches deep.
How many days will you hold my items in the locker?
After your items have been in the locker for 3 full days, they will be returned to the the owning library during the next open hours for the branch.
Can I request more than one locker at a time?
No. Since the lockers are a limited resource, each household can use one locker at a time.
Are the lockers ever not available due to weather?
Potentially. During, and immediately following inclement winter weather, it may take some time for the stairs and front porch to be shoveled and treated. We will hold your materials for an additional day in such an event.
