Coplay Public Library: Curbside pickup is available; library to open doors June 29

The library will remain closed to the public during the yellow phase, but the book drop is open to receive materials. The due dates for materials have been adjusted during the pandemic.

Checkouts are limited to five items per card at any time. When your items are ready for pickup, staff will call you. When you arrive at the library, call us from your car and your items will be brought out to you.
Curbside hours are noon-4 p.m. Mondays and Wednesdays, 2-7 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11 a.m.-3 p.m. Fridays and 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturdays.
All returned materials will be quarantined for three days and sanitized before being released for circulation.
