Summer Reading 2020
Director's Note
Welcome to (unofficial) summer! We are so excited to open our doors and start our Summer Reading program! We have missed all of you. Things look and work a little different so we want to give you a glimpse into our process. This is a fluid plan so please be patient with us as we work to figure out how to serve the community in the best way possible.
We are promoting a grab and go service. Staff will have popularly checked out books from different genres readily available around the library for someone to come in and quickly grab. This can cut down on browsing time and allow other patrons to come in for library services. We will continue to offer curbside service for those that do not wish to come inside. The library will have a limited capacity (10 people in at a time) to allow more space between patrons. To allow everybody to have access to services like the computer, we are encouraging everybody to be mindful of the time they spend in the library. Staff will also be more strongly enforcing pre-existing time restrictions for certain services.
When you go to check out your materials, please follow directions from staff on how they would like to process your checkouts. In the initial phase, we are asking you to help limit contact by utilizing the bar code scanner with staff’s guidance.
Grab and Go – Hours Monday-Friday 10am-4pm. We will not offer service on Saturdays at this time.
Summer Reading will start on June 1st. We are excited that we will be offering an online service for keeping track of all your summer reading- and this works for all ages! It even has an app! See below for specifics.
Thank you for supporting your local library!
