Services are only to pick out books and utilize the computer, with only three computers available to allow for social distancing. The library is still offering all the great databases it always has for research and recreation. The library also provides teen programming virtually every month.

The library had a Wi-Fi amplifier installed to allow patrons and students to access the Internet on the library’s grounds and in the parking lot.
