Services

We always welcome new patrons, and we would like to tell you a few things you

will need to know.

​

Collections

Our collection of approximately 20,000 items includes fiction, non-fiction, large

print books, children’s materials, and reference books. We also offer access to DVDs

and audiobooks available for check-out. Our patrons can also check out eBooks and digital audiobooks from the CamelliaNet state-wide consortium. There is a 10-cent per day, per item, and a late fee for items returned after the due date. However, the late fee total will never exceed a maximum of $3.00 fine per item. You may call us at (334) 503-9119 to renew your items for another two weeks. We also have a drop box for your convenience after hours. We ask that you only use the drop box for books. Do not place DVDs or audiobooks in the drop box. You will be responsible for any damages to DVDs or audiobooks dropped in the drop box.

 

Library Cards

The Daleville Public Library issues free library cards to residents of Daleville, Clayhatchee, Level Plains, and Ft. Novocell (Ft. Rucker). However, if you reside in another city or town, the Library will issue you a free library card if you are affiliated in any way with Daleville or Ft. Rucker, such as working or having children attending schools in these areas. All Library card applicants may apply for, receive a card, and borrow library materials immediately if they present acceptable identification showing their

current residential address. Library card applications can be filled out only at the

Daleville Public Library. The signature of a parent or guardian is required on

applications for library cards for children under age 16. The parent or guardian is

responsible for materials charged to his/her child's library card. Your first library card

is free.  Replacement cards are $2.00.
