Movies are listed with local listings first, then Plymouth Public Library's holdings, and finally a JustWatch link, which gathers together the links from all major streaming platforms where the film is currently available. DVDs in our library check out for 1 week; Plymouth Public Library sets its own due dates and circulation policies, so please check with them for due dates. For your convenience, our library has one portable DVD player with built-in screen available for a 3-day checkout. Not all films have DVDs and availability of streaming films may not be guaranteed. Due to low demand for DVDs, we don't have more than one copy for most films, so availability is on a first-come, first served basis.
