The Central Kansas Library System subsidizes courier service for all eligible member public libraries through a courier allotment. As part of the eligibility requirement for the Courier Allotment a library must actively participate in statewide interlibrary loan and stay current in submitting courier statistics to Kansas Library Express.
Each eligible public library pays an annual fee, with any volume overage charges incurred to be paid by CKLS. The state courier policy committee negotiates the contract for courier service on an ongoing basis. The cost to member libraries is subject to change.
Member school district libraries may arrange to receive library items on the courier to be delivered to their nearest CKLS public library with prior arrangement. This is done by way of a memorandum of understanding between the school board and the library board, with a copy kept on file at CKLS. Contact Gail Santy for more information.
