What services are currently available inside the Library?

Seating is limited only to those few public computers. The second floor remains closed for now. All meeting rooms and study rooms are closed for now, since these spaces aren’t currently designed for adequate social distancing.

Is there a limit on how many people can be inside the Library?

Yes—the Library is open at 50% of normal occupancy. Staff will greet visitors upon arrival and keep a tally on numbers. Waiting times are possible, and staff will guide and assist if there is a queue of people. While there are no time limits, we recommend visits of no more than one hour.

Will the Library continue offering curbside service?

Yes—health agencies, including the CDC, strongly encourage libraries to continue curbside as a service option. It has been very popular locally. Click here for full details about curbside “to-go ordering”.
