Starting Tuesday, October 27th, the library will be open for browsing. It will no longer be necessary to make an appointment to come in. However, we do recommend calling ahead of time, to be sure the library is at a safe capacity. We will only allow 3 patrons at a time for browsing.  We will continue to offer curbside pickup if desired.

Please Note! Our new hours as of October 27th. are: Tuesdays; 9am -12pm & 1pm – 5pm  Wednesday; 3pm-7pm (NEW!) Thursday; 9am-12pm & 1pm- 5pm

*You must wear a face mask and use the hand sanitizer in the lobby before entering the building.

Note to our patrons; Due to books having to be quarantined once they have been returned, you may receive emails saying they are overdue. Please disregard. All fines will be forgiven.
