Courier Delivery Holiday Schedule

Going on vacation? So is your Courier Delivery driver!

Delivery will be closed for Thanksgiving on Thursday, Nov. 27, and Friday, Nov. 28.

Additionally, due to high fuel costs, Delivery will take a hiatus from Dec. 22, 2008 to Jan. 2, 2009. Ceasing Delivery for just two weeks will save the program thousands of dollars and will get their budget back on track.

This hiatus means that Delivery drivers will not pick up or deliver any orange bags from Dec. 22 through Jan. 2. They will resume our normal schedule on Monday, Jan. 5. These dates were chosen because it will cause the least amount of impact and inconvenience to participating libraries. Because of the holidays, those two weeks are Delivery’s slowest time of year and many libraries are closed.

If you have any questions, please contact us at (800) 622-8252 or deliver@tblc.org.

How is everyone handling this? I know we didn't allow for this in our budget so really don't have the money for the extra postage and supplies needed for business as usual with the USPS taking up the slack for DLLI.
Are you suspending ILL Borrowing during this time?
Are you just keeping all your send-outs and returns until DLLI is operating again?
