Keeping Each Other Safe:
Masks are highly recommended in all indoor settings. We ask that you respect these guidelines to protect the staff and other patrons. Curbside Pickup and Grab & Go options will continue to be available.
Stay home if you are sick. If you have a temperature, a cough, runny or stuffy nose, shortness of breath, or sore throat, or have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive or is under review for COVID-19, please don’t come into the library – the staff and your fellow patrons appreciate it!
Please bring your library card. Presenting your library card will help save time and shorten face-to-face contact. Self-checkout will also be available.
Hand sanitizer will be available at all service desks, self-check computers, copiers, printers, and other areas. Please use these as you touch materials in the building.
Please be mindful of other patrons as you browse, both to maintain physical distance and to move on when you’re finished to allow other patrons access to library materials. Please bring your library card to help streamline checkout.
