COVID-19 Protocols

Update on June 10, 2021:

Out of an abundance of caution and concern for our staff and the health of our patrons, especially the ones who cannot get vaccinated or have an immune-deficiency, we still require face masks to be worn in the building. Thank you!

June Hours (for curbside service & in-person browsing):

• Tuesday 10 am - 2 pm
• Thursday 10 am - 2 pm
• Friday noon - 4 pm 

The library building is open for browsing - with:

• Reduced hours until July 6th (see above)
• Curbside pickup is available 
• Appointments for elderly and medically vulnerable patrons are offered by request
• Limited seating in our conference room
• Since we are still in a global pandemic, the board has decided to forego a grand opening celebration at this time. We hope to reschedule a big party for the summer of 2021.

 COVID-19 Mitigation:

We do everything we can to ensure the health and safety of staff, volunteers, patrons and visitors (paramount!)

We are very lucky that the new building offers: 

• Lots of space for social distancing
• State-of-the-art ventilation equipment: air can be completely filtered and “renewed” every 12 minutes throughout the building.
• HEPA-filters are in place and will be changed regularly.

 Specific COVID Safety Measures: 

• Face masks are mandatory in the building (age 2+)
• Social distancing is expected throughout the building (min. 6 feet)
• Access to hand sanitizer is available at multiple locations in the building
• Acrylic screens are provided at the circulation desk
• Enhanced cleaning protocol
• Computer use is suspended until the end of June
