Books-by-Mail is a convenient service that supplies books, audiobooks, and videos to people who are unable to use the library system due to temporary or long-term physical and medical disabilities.

Who may receive this service?
Children and adults who cannot visit a library in their area due to a physical or medical disability—and their caregivers—qualify for Books-By-Mail. Books-By-Mail patrons will need an up-to-date library card from one of the member libraries. Books-By-Mail patrons may also apply for a library card by calling their local library.

How does this service work?
Books-By-Mail will send materials through the mail in a zippered, nylon bag to registered patrons. When the materials are due for return, the patron attaches postage and mails the bag back. Postage free service is available to those patrons who qualify. The bag may be dropped off at any Okaloosa County Library to save on return postage.

Patrons may request library materials by phone, mail, or email us at NcvLibrary@okaloosa.lib.fl.us . Books-By-Mail provides reader’s advisory service upon request. Patrons can visit our online library catalog to browse our books and other materials.

How do I apply?
You may request an application by calling your local library or (850) 279-4863 ext. 1504 during Books-By-Mail service hours: Tuesday – Friday, 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. You may also email
us at NcvLibrary@okaloosa.lib.fl.us.
