- Request a Zip Book at the circulation desk of any branch of the Madera County Library or online. You will need to have your library card ready!
- The requesting patron must be a Madera County resident.
- Any books in regular print format, large-print format, or audiobooks on CD that the Madera County Library System does not yet own – and that are not current, regular print fiction New York Times bestsellers – may be requested as Zip Books. DVD’s and music CDs are not eligible for this program.
- Item ships directly to your address via amazon.com (must be available for $50 or less for books and $75 or less for audiobooks).
- Limit of 3 items* per person per month. Patrons will be able to request one book at a time and must return their Zip Book before they can request another. *Monthly limit is subject to change*
- Zip Books will be checked out to your Madera County Library account for 3 weeks.
- Zip Books are subject to our normal late fees & fines.
NOTE: As Madera County Library has limited access to unique cataloging, this means we will be more selective with what request we approve. Items should be published within the last 10 years, part of a series that we may already own part of (i.e., we don’t have book 1 of a series in the Madera County system, but we have later books in the same series), and the record must be available within OCLC or WorldCat for us to get the cataloging information.
