About MVLC
The Wilmington Memorial Library is part of the Merrimack Valley Library Consortium (MVLC), a network of public libraries serving thirty-six communities throughout the Merrimack Valley region of Massachusetts. Nearly three million items are speedily available to you through MVLC. If our library doesn’t have what you want, the item can be requested from another library in the consortium and will usually be delivered within a few days. You can place holds on items in our catalog; library staff may also place holds for you. When the items are ready for pick up, you will be notified by either phone, email, or text.
MVLC Circulation Policies
Each member library is an independent entity and regulations, fines and charges will vary from library to library. However, MVLC members do have some policies in common:
- Residents of MVLC communities must have a library card from their home-town library.
- Your MVLC card may be used at any public library in the consortium.
- You are responsible for all materials borrowed on your card.
- Most materials may be returned to any MVLC library.
- Replacement costs will be charged for lost or damaged materials.
- Fines and replacement costs may be paid at any MVLC library.
- Borrowing privileges will be suspended if materials are not returned or if overdue fines are not paid.
