To minimize the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19), the library will remain closed to the public until further notice. However, we have recently begun the reintroduction of onsite services as follows:
When your items have been retrieved, you will be contacted to set up a pickup time on our front lawn on Main Street at our tent. Pickups are by appointment only Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. Thursdays we provide the service from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m., and we now do Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Please let us know if you require assistance or your items delivered to your trunk.
Returns
In order to safely receive returns, the Library has closed its book drops temporarily and set up drop off days & times. Starting this week, these return times will be Tuesdays 12-4, Thursdays 3-7, and Saturdays 10-1. Come to the back parking lot and go to the POD of the day to drop off your items. These returns days are dependent upon the weather, so if rain or thunderstorms are in the forecast, contact us first!
Please no donations at this time.
Remember, all of your library materials are automatically renewed for you until July 1, and no overdues will be charged. You have plenty of time! At this time donations are not being accepted.
