Borrowing Beyond Books

We have plenty of books, movies, music, and magazines available for you to check out (in print and digitally through Libby!), but we have so many other things available to borrow, too!

Ice skates are available for free one-day checkout through a partnership with Cross Plains Parks and Recreation! Skates are available while the municipal ice rink is open and are intended for use on that rink. A waiver must be signed prior to borrowing the skates.

Check Out APT is a partnership with Dane County Libraries and American Players Theater to offer a limited number of ticket vouchers for summer and fall APT shows. Stop at the library or call us at 608-798-3881 to learn more.

Day-use Wisconsin State Park Passes are available at our front desk. These passes allow you to checkout a Wisconsin State Park for a day. Passes are valid for one day and you must know the date that you'll be visiting the park so that the pass can be validated at the library upon checkout. Thank you to the Friends of the Library for sponsoring these passes!

Our Seed Library is open March through the end of summer and has a variety of vegetable, herb, and flower seeds available for you to take home and test out your green thumb. Thank you to the Friends of the Library for sponsoring our seed library!

We have a wide variety of board games and puzzles for kids and adults available for checkout. Games and puzzles checkout for 2 weeks. We also have an ongoing puzzle swap table in the library if you have a collection of puzzles you'd like to trade out for some new ones.
