Do you have local history materials?
We have a small amount of material related to Tuttle history. We also have yearbooks from Tuttle High School from 1949 to 2011. If you have historical materials to share relating to Tuttle history, please contact the Tuttle Historical Society.
Can you help me find books about a specific topic or from a certain genre?
Yes. We are always happy to help you find the books you need, whether it’s a new book similar to other ones that you’ve liked, a specific research topic, or the best books for your child’s reading level and interests.
Can I use your computers to print something?
Yes. Our computer lab is free to use and you do not have to have a library card. You may print in black and white for $0.10/page or in color for $0.50/page. We have standard 8.5" x 11" paper, legal size paper (8.5" x 14") and poster-size paper (11" x 17").
I don’t know how to use a computer very well. Can you help me?
Yes. Please let the librarian or a volunteer know if you need help using a computer to access the Internet, print documents, set up an email account, or any other basic task. For assistance with complicated tasks like using Microsoft Office, creating a resume, or anything that requires more than half an hour, you may want to contact the library in advance and schedule an appointment with the librarian.
Please keep in mind that we generally do not assist with online tasks that require us to handle sensitive information for you such as your bank account information or your Social Security number. We also do not assist with legal papers or filing taxes.
Do you have a place where I can study or meet one-on-one with a client/student?
Yes. You are welcome to use space in our library to study and meet with individual clients and students. One of the benefits of a library is that it is a free to use public space where you are not obligated to purchase anything or have a membership. You will not need to rent our meeting room or make a reservation for study sessions and one-on-one meetings, though at this time we encourage you to call ahead and let the library know when you intend to be there. Privacy is not guaranteed, but the library is quiet and we have tables, chairs, computers, and free WiFi.
Do you have Interlibrary Loan?
We do not have the ability to do interlibrary loans yet.
Do you sell books or have a book sale?
Yes, we have an ongoing book sale in the library. Prices are $2.00 per hardback book, $1.00 per paperback book, and $.50 per children’s book. We are always adding new inventory, so please feel free to stop by and browse. You may also contact the library and ask if we have specific books in stock. We do not ship books to customers, but we will reserve a book for you until you are able to pick it up.
Can you help me with absentee voting?
Yes. Click here to read about absentee voting in Oklahoma. If you need to make a copy of your ID for absentee voting, your copy will be free of charge. Our librarian is a notary public, and notary services are available next door at the Tuttle Tag Agency as well.
Do you have tax forms?
The IRS sends out a limited number of paper forms, and the Oklahoma Tax Commission no longer sends out paper forms. In addition, post offices no longer have tax forms. As a service to the community, we do our best to obtain paper tax forms for our patrons and we will print any requested tax form for free. You may print the instructions for $0.10/per page, but this is not recommended as it can get quite expensive. We recommend using our computer lab to read the instructions online. Watch our website or Facebook page for announcements about the availability of paper tax forms at the library.
Do you proctor exams?
Yes, we proctor exams for free. Please see our policy page for more information.
Do you take items for recycling?
The Tuttle Library does not provide recycling services or accept recyclable items.
Are you a municipal library or part of the Pioneer Library System?
The Tuttle Library is currently an independent library that is supported almost entirely by donations. On December 13, 2021, the City Council and Mayor of Tuttle approved the FY 2022 budget for the City of Tuttle, which includes funding for a municipal library. The Tuttle Library will transition into a municipal library sometime in 2022.
