Gibsonville Public Library joins the NC Cardinal consortium!

NC Cardinal is a growing consortium of 216 public library locations in 62 North Carolina counties dedicated to sharing resources and expanding opportunities through the use of a single online catalog. NC Cardinal expands items available to you from about 13,000 physical items currently available at the Gibsonville Public Library to over 7.7 million statewide!

 New Features in Cardinal

  • Discover materials not owned locally
  • Borrow materials from any NC Cardinal Library using your Gibsonville library card
  • Place holds online for items from any NC Cardinal library and pick them up at the Gibsonville Library – FREE.
  • Return borrowed materials at any NC Cardinal Library

What’s not changing…

  • After the move is complete, you can still request items, renew checkouts, and manage your account online, by phone, or in person
  • Gibsonville cardholders will continue to have first dibs on books, movies, and other materials owned by the Gibsonville Public Library.
