Paperback Exchange

in

 

We have a new and improved Paperback Exchange in the Circulation!

Located in the DVD area, the exchange has been reorganized with new selections added each week. Just grab what you want to read and when finished, you may return it in our book return.

No library card is needed, and anyone may use this service!

You may donate your own picks by dropping them off at the Circulation desk. If we don’t add them to the exchange, they will go to our Friends of the Grandview Library Book & AV Sales.

Enjoy the Paperback Exchange!

Once again, Library Journal has named the Grandview Heights Public Library one of America’s best public libraries!

GHPL ranked second in the nation in its category for the second straight year, while earning its seventh consecutive 5-star rating.

The Library Journal Index of Public Library Service identified outstanding libraries in its America’s Star Libraries 2014. Ratings are based on 2012 data from the IMLS—circulation, visits, program attendance, and Internet use, each per capita.

Your continued support has made the Grandview Library one of the best public libraries in the country! Thank you!

In addition to the Grandview Library, five other Central Ohio library systems received star ratings:
