The Burnham Library is pleased to offer curbside pick-up of library materials and print-outs by appointment to Bridgewater residents and non-residents. 

Curbside Pickup

Requests will be received and processed during library hours: Tuesday – Friday 10-5 and Saturday 9-1.

Curbside pick-up is offered for both Bridgewater residents and non-residents.

Patrons may browse and request items through our library catalog or by emailing staff@burnhamlibrary.org or by phone at 860-354-6937.

A staff member will contact you via email or phone to confirm that your pick-up is ready and schedule a time for you to pick up your items.

Items will NOT be left in the pick-up bin without confirmation from the patron.

Upon confirmation, your items will be placed in our curbside pick-up bin located outside the side door of the library. 

Patrons returning items may do so in our external book drop which is open 24/7.

Print on Demand

The Library is open for self-printing, copying and faxing. However, we also offer a NEW print on demand service for our patrons.

Print on demand will be offered during library hours, Tuesday – Friday 10-5 and Saturday 9-1. 

Email your attachments to print@burnhamlibrary.org and specify:

  • Number of prints/pages
  • Color of prints
  • Size of print – Standard 8 ½ x 11 or Legal 8 ½ x 14

Prints are offered in both standard and legal size with a limit of 5 pages for color prints and 20 pages for black and white. Color prints are 50 cents per page and black and white are 25 cents per page.

A staff member will reply and confirm your request and schedule a pick-up time.

Payment will be made at the main circulation desk at pick-up. Cash (small bills) is preferred.

Please allow for a 24-hour turn-around time on request. Staff is not responsible for low-image quality.

Faxing Services

Faxing is for outgoing faxes only.

Library staff will attempt to send a fax 3 times. There is no guarantee that the fax will send successfully.

Once done, you will be given a transmission receipt whether the fax submission is successful or not. 

Faxing can take as long as 30-45 minutes. You are welcome to leave and come back later to retrieve your original documents and receipt.
