Shoutbomb

With Shoutbomb's text messaging service, you can:

• Get alerts about holds, items due soon, and overdue items
• Renew eligible items via text message
• Continue to receive your standard email or telephone notice as usual

Please note: The Library District does not charge for this service, but your mobile plan's regular text messaging rates apply.

You can use Shoutbomb to manage various aspects of your account by using specific keywords. Text any of these commands to 844-234-1966 to interact with your account. You can interact with your account using Shoutbomb at any time of the day, even if the library is closed. 

By default, the following notices are turned on; however, texting the related keyword to 844-234-1966 will turn that notice off. Texting the keyword again will turn that type of notice back on.

• REMINDER – This is a notice that things will soon be due
• OVERDUE – This is a notice that things are already overdue
• FEES – This is a notice that there are fines or fees owed
• PICKUP – This is a notice that you have holds ready to be picked up
• RENEW – This is a notice that things will soon be due, and you can renew them
