SPARK - 24/7 Library

SPARK 24/7 Library Kiosk

Away from the main branch? Need library services after hours? The Southern Pines Automated Remote Kiosk (affectionately known to the library as SPARK) allows you to borrow, return, and renew library materials 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! Conveniently located at FS 82, 7850 NC-22 Hwy, Carthage, NC 28327, the SPARK 24/7 Library provides easy access to library materials. 

SPARK holds over 200 items, including the hottest new fiction and non-fiction, large print materials, audiobooks and DVDs, and children's books for all ages! 

The SPARK 24/7 Library makes it easy to find a new and exciting read, whenever you need. All you need is your library card and 4-digit pin to unlock new material, any time of day or night. You can also use the SPARK 24/7 Kiosk to renew materials that you already have checked out, or to return items checked out from the Kiosk or from the main library!
