Homebound Delivery
Are you homebound and unable to come to the Library?
Let us bring the Library to you! Mount Prospect Public Library provides free delivery of library materials to Mount Prospect residents and registered cardholders who are physically unable to come to the Library due to disability or long-term illness.

Registration for this service is easy. Complete the attached form and return to Library by mail to the address below, online at www.mppl.org/services/homedel, or by contacting Diane Davis, Homebound Coordinator, at 847-253-5675, x 4069.
After registering for the service, you will be connected with a staff member to discuss what types of materials interest you. Books (fi ction, nonfi ction, large print, and audio) and magazines are eligible for homebound checkout. A volunteer will then contact you to make arrangements for delivery, generally scheduled for once a month.
How can you become a homebound volunteer?
Contact Janet Keena, Volunteer Coordinator at Mount Prospect Public Library, at 847-253-5675, extension 3213. A short orientation is required, as are a valid driver's license and proof of insurance. You will be assigned a homebound patron when one becomes available.
