About Community Services
Through engaging programming, convenient delivery services, and strong partnerships, community services bring the library into the community.
Assistive Devices
Borrow a wheelchair, walker, cane, or set of crutches for free just like you would borrow a book. The library can even deliver the device to your home if you can’t get to the library. To learn more, visit our Accessibility page.
Curbside Pickup
Curbside Pickup lets you pick up your holds without leaving your car.

Lobby Library
The Community Services Librarian visits the lobby of the Council on Aging once a month. During the visit, patrons can browse and borrow from a curated collection of books, movies, and more. Lobby Library is held on the last Thursday of each month from 10am-12pm.
Memory Café
In collaboration with the Billerica Council on Aging and Dementia Friendly Billerica, the library hosts a monthly Memory Café. The Café provides people living with dementia and their care partners an opportunity to socialize and enjoy fun entertainment. The Memory Café meets on the 2nd Wednesday of the month from 1pm-2pm in the Billerica Public Library’s Meeting Room. For more information, call Kathleen Kenny at 978-671-0949 ext. 4102.
