Notary Services
Notary services are available on the Bookmobile at no charge throughout the county by appointment only. Notary Services are provided at the discretion of the notary. A notary public acts as an impartial third-party witness to the signature of a document, and that all parties who signed a document did so willingly and under their own free will. Please bring a government-issued photo ID (ex. valid state driver’s or non-driver’s license, valid U.S. Passport, valid military ID) when you visit, and library staff can help you. Patrons must bring their own witnesses if needed, that library staff may not serve as witnesses. Examples of documents that may require notarization are wills, trusts, absentee or mail-in ballots, deeds, trusts, contracts, powers of attorney, and affidavits.
Wi-Fi & Printing
The Bookmobile offers free Wi-Fi and printing services.
