For the health and safety of our patrons and staff,
and based on an up-tick in local cases of COVID-19,
the Library Board of Trustees has, out of an abundance of caution,
decided to suspend in-person browsing, effective December 21, 2020.
We hope to resume that service on Tuesday, January 19, 2021.

Contact-less pick-up services will continue.
