No-Contact Curbside Pickup service

Curbside pickup begins on Wednesday, May 6th. ❤️

How do you use curbside pickup?

Reserve your items online at the library’s website using your library card. Go to www.bowmanlibrary.com and use our online catalog. Or call the library at 701-523-3797 from 10am – 2pm Monday – Wednesday.

We will bag your items and have them ready for pickup on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Pickup is from 11 am to 2 pm.

To keep this contact-free, your bagged items will be at the front of the library. Your bag will have the last four digits of your phone number written on it.

We reserve the right to tweak this process as we figure out the best way to serve you!

No returns accepted at this time. Keep any current items you have checked out right now and we will extend all due dates and make sure no fines accrue. 

Be well. <3

Signs of Spring Scavenger Hunt

Here’s a little something fun to do in honor of Spring while still maintaining the practice of social distancing!

This is your chance to take a break from your phone, get present, and fully be in the moment just observing your scavenger finds. Let it be an opportunity to fuel your creativity by taking your own photos of what you come up with!

Do what you need to and just have fun!!

Can you hear and see a Meadowlark? Can you find a sunrise?
Can you find a sunset?
Can you take deep breath of spring air?
Can you find a crocus?
Can you find a tree?
Can you find a muddy footprint or an animal track?
Can you feel the grass beneath your feet?
Can you find cloud? Can you find a feather?

Thank you Bowman-Slope Community Foundation!

Thank you to the Bowman-Slope Community Foundation for supporting the Library’s new Calm Down Corner! A calm down corner is a place for angry or upset children (and adults too!) to go to engage their minds, release their anger and regulate their emotions. It’s a comforting space with sensory, calming and engaging activities.
