Automation

The Adult Lending of the Kingstown Public Library is automated using the Alexandria Library Software. Adult users of the Adult Lending area are being issued books using a Library ID bar-coded card. There is a database of the Adult Library members and the Adult Lending Collection.

Presently, the Department is creating a database of the Reference Library at the Kingstown Public Library.
