Computer Classes
Some instruction is available from library staff if time permits. However, for more in-depth instruction, patrons are encouraged to sign-up for our ongoing computer classes. These classes have included Intro to Computers, Microsoft Office, Digital Photography, Internet & Email and more. Classes should begin again soon. Please call the Library at (724) 446-9940 or email us for more information or to add your name to our waiting lists.
Interlibrary Loan
If you know that our Library doesn’t own the particular item you are looking for, you may search the catalog of other Westmoreland County Libraries by going to our homepage at www.sewickleytownshippubliclibrary.org. Click on the Online Catalog link. Holds may be placed online by clicking on Patron Account and entering the barcode number of your library card and a password. The password defaults to the last 4 digits of your phone number. This can be changed once you access your account. You may also renew items online. If you experience any problems while using the online system, please call the library for assistance.
Additionally, Library staff can search library databases throughout Pennsylvania and the entire United States to locate titles.
Any item located in these databases can be ordered via Interlibrary Loan and it will be shipped to our Library for you to check out. Items borrowed within the county usually only take a few days to arrive. Items borrowed outside the county take approximately one week to arrive.
For assistance, please inquire at the circulation desk, call (724) 446-9940, or email us. We’d be happy to help you.
