Email Notices

Appleton Public Library is saving money and offering better service to patrons with reserves to pick up and overdue materials to bring back by sending their notices by electronic mail.

During one month this summer the library sent 4,967 notices by e-mail at a savings of $1,837.79 in postage. During that month, 64% of the library's notices were sent by e-mail.

Patrons have noticed how much faster they receive their notices when they get them by e-mail. They usually receive their e-mail notices in one day or less.

Library patrons interested in receiving their overdue and reserve notices by e-mail should go to http://www.apl.org/libcats/emailnotice.asp and fill in the form on that internet page.
