New Parent Home Delivery Services

The Library congratulates you on the birth of your child! We understand that this is a very special—and busy—time, so we would like to offer our home delivery service to help assist you.

In order to encourage your child to be a lifelong reader, we recommend that you begin reading to him or her right away.  

And don’t forget: we have a large selection of parenting books to help you navigate through the sometimes complex issues of parenthood.  

How It Works

• To receive books and other library materials, you must have a Plainfield Public Library card. Home delivery services are offered for a period of eight weeks. You can choose to begin your service before your child is due, or after you child is born, according to your needs.
• Materials will be delivered and picked up on Thursdays.
• You will receive a phone call before the materials are delivered, as well as a reminder call before they are picked up.
• Materials will be delivered in a weatherproof library bag and will be dropped off at your premises if you are not available at the time of delivery. Please put materials in the same bag for pick up. If requested, we are happy to provide books and materials for other family members during this time.

For either service, please contact: Judi Deszcz, Outreach Assistant at 1-815-327-2524
