FERRIS PUBLIC LIBRARY: More than Books (April 14, 2022)
You may now renew the items you have borrowed from the Ferris Public Library online. It’s super easy.
Go to www.ferristexas.gov, hover your mouse over “Government” and select “Library” from the dropdown. From the left side of that page, click on “Search Online Collection” – (it would be helpful for you to go ahead and bookmark this page). To login, simply put your library card number in, and the password is your last name, all lower case. Once you’re logged in, select “Items Out” – all of your checked-out material will be shown. You may “Select All” or one or two items, then click “Renew” and that’s it!
This process will not work in the following situations: items already late; fines are owed; membership has expired, or if books/DVDs have previously been renewed two times.
Of course, you may call us at (972) 544-3696, and we will be happy to renew what you have checked out, or to help with any questions you may have.
With Easter right around the corner, Stacey has created a display full of Easter books for children of all ages, including board books for our youngest readers. The library also has Easter DVDs you may check-out.
The Ferris Public Library has tax forms 1040 and 1040-SR along with the instruction book for your 2021 tax return. If you require a tax form, not in the booklet, we can print it off for you, 10¢ per page.
