Jennings County Public Library is now with Evergreen Indiana

The Jennings County Public Library is pleased to announce that we are now live on Evergreen Indiana. Jennings County Public Library patrons will receive their new cards toward the end of December. Evergreen Indiana is a consortium of public libraries in Indiana. Founded in conjunction with the Indiana State Library, Evergreen Indiana offers participating Evergreen libraries access to a shared catalog with libraries throughout Indiana.

What does joining Evergreen Indiana mean for JCPL patrons?
Jennings County Public Library patrons will have access to materials at any Evergreen Indiana Library. After receiving the new consortium cards, patrons may check out materials at any migrated consortium library, including nearby Jackson County Pubic Library in Seymour and the Brownstown Public Library in Brownstown. Please be aware that you may only receive your consortium card from your home library. Consortium cards will not be honored at libraries which have not completed their migration.

The appearance of our online catalog has changed, and users will have more opportunities to place holds, browse other libraries' collections, and renew materials at home or on the road.

Sponsored by the Indiana State Library and a Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) grant, this project will save taxpayers money, while simultaneously increasing the available resources for all Library patrons! We are very excited about the next couple of months and the changes they will bring!
