Our Library
The Gering Public Library is conveniently located next door to City Hall
and across the street from the Post Office. The library currently serves
over 8,000 customers from the panhandle area. Gering Public Library is a part
of the City of Gering. The current building was
erected in 1964 with an addition built in 1978. The Library recently received
a new look with completely new carpet, paint, and book shelve end caps. In a constant state of growth,
the Gering Library is very pro-active in its service, facility, and equipment.
Our Literary Collection
Our collection includes fiction, non-fiction books, children's section, teen
section, large
print books, reference books, Nebraska section, city directory, paperback
books, books on tape and CDs, magazines & newspapers, consumer information,
community information, travel packets, Gering Courier on microfilm (1887-
present), filmstrips, videos and DVDs, cake pans, and puppets.
Our Card Catalog Online
As of 1/30/2003 we have our card catalog available for viewing online. Now
you can see if the book you want is in before you make the trip to the Library.
Material Due Dates
Materials may be checked out for two weeks and may be renewed for an additional
two weeks unless there is a hold for it. You may renew materials by telephone
(436-7433). Magazines, videos, cameras, & cake pans may be checked out for one
week. Magazines cannot be renewed.
Fines
One overdue notice will be sent for overdue materials, and $1 per notice
will be charged for all materials returned more than 7 days late if all items
are returned at the same time. Borrowing privileges may be temporarily
suspended if books are overdue or if materials have been lost and not paid
for.
Thursdays are "no fine" days. For materials less than 3 months overdue,
no fines are assessed if the items are returned inside the library during regular
operating hours.
