In-Person Services
How It Works
- SDCL is now offering services at all 33 branches.
- Most services are available at each library, but with some modifications.
- Services include:
- Computer use
- Printing and copying
- Holds pickup
- Access to books, movies, and CDs for checkout
- Wi-Fi access
- Materials returns
- Materials may be returned at all branches 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- Due to operational needs there may be days where only walk-up doorside service is available to pick up requests. Branches will notify customers through social media with as much notice as possible.
- Furniture and equipment will remain spread out and sometimes removed to encourage physical distancing.

Once museums have fully opened and we have received permission from the individual museums, we will begin museum pass circulation for the Museum of Art and the San Diego Children's Discovery Museum. The New Children's Museum has discontinued their library pass program and those passes will no longer be available from SDCL. Any previous requests for those passes have been removed from our system.
