Good Eats at Your Library!
Whether you and your little one have worked up an appetite playing in the Children’s Room or you need a pick-me-up while studying, patrons have a variety of food choices at the South Huntington Library.
A self-checkout micro-market is located on the lower level. Offerings include nutritious snacks, light meals and hot and cold beverages. Payment is through a kiosk that accepts credit and debit cards, or you can create an account and use the keychain card or the Canteen Connect & Pay app on your smart phone.
Please be aware that the micro-market is monitored by cameras for security purposes. Also, the library maintains its policy of prohibiting food and/or drink in the Adult and Children’s libraries, Theater and Meeting Room. However, feel free to enjoy your meal or snack in the gallery or, once the weather permits, outside in the garden.
We hope that the micro-market will serve your needs and result in a positive library experience!
