Reopening May 26

Join us at 12:30 PM

After weeks of preparation, we’re ready to reopen our doors. We’re looking forward to seeing you!

Be assured, our staff is following CDC safety guidelines as we implement our Stage 3 reopening plan. In addition, we have set corresponding Visitor Guidelines that will need to be followed while inside the Library…

  • Please do not visit the Library if you are sick or experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19.
  • Face masks are required for all staff and visitors unless you are under 3-years-old or have a health condition that prevents it. If you cannot wear a face mask for either of these reasons, please alert a Librarian as soon as you enter the building.
  • Parents, only one child (under 12) per adult may enter the Library & they must remain with you throughout your visit.

  • Maintain physical distancing of 6 feet.
  • Follow the directional signs, arrows, and waiting spots within the Library. Watch for our aisles to be marked for one-way browsing.
  • Use our hand sanitizing stations, available throughout the Library.

 

Guidelines we’ll follow

  • The Library will open with a limited number of staff who will complete a health assessment before each shift.
  • Staff will wear face masks.
  • High-touch surfaces will be cleaned regularly.
  • All returned Library materials will be quarantined for 72 hours before being processed.
  • Sneeze-guards have been added to all public desks.
