Our updated reopening plan is linked below. Phase 4, browsing by appointment, begins Tuesday, July 7th. During phase 4, groups of three or fewer can browse in the library for 30 minutes by appointment.
[NEW] Phase 4.5 will begin Monday July 20th. In phase 4.5, we’ll offer the same services as in phase 4–computer use and browsing by appointment–but will expand our hours to Monday-Thursday 10am – 6pm and Friday-Saturday 10am – 5:30pm. Walk-ins for both browsing and computer use will be allowed if slots are available. Curbside hours will remain the same: Tues. & Thur.: 2pm-6pm; Wed. & Fri.: 10am-2pm; and Sat.: 9am-12pm.
Beginning 7/20, browsing appointments will spaced every 20 minutes so no more than 8 browsers will be in the building at any time plus no more than 4 computer users. At checkout, patrons will be required to use one of the 2 self-checks that will be available. Visitors under 14 need to be accompanied by an adult. Masks will be required. Disposable masks will be available. Staff can make appointments for patrons–for curbside holds and printing pickup, computer use, and browsing–under the Patron Assistance menu on the intranet. Let me know if you have any questions.
