Finding Books & Materials in your Library

Looking for that special book? If it's out there, we want to help you find it!

You can follow a few steps to try and find it at your own Library, within the greater networked Library system, or within Massachusetts. Still having trouble? Read on to discover how we can help!

SAILS Library Network logo
Step 1: Please search the SAILS Enterprise catalog first. This search system will look for titles both in Pembroke Public Library and in the SAILS Library system, a network of over 60 libraries in Massachusetts.

Step 2: If the material you want is not available in the SAILS catalog, please log in to use the Commonwealth Catalog, sponsored by the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners. You will need your library card number and PIN. For additional assistance, please contact the Pembroke Public Library.

The Commonwealth Catalog extends your search beyond your local library’s resources. In one easy step, you can search through millions of items at participating libraries across Massachusetts to find the books, DVDs, and music you’re looking for. Make a request and it will be delivered right to your local library for quick pickup.
