Masks are no longer mandated; however, there are times when children under 12 years of age - who cannot be vaccinated - are in the library. With highly transmittable variants on the rise, we ask anyone who is not fully vaccinated to consider wearing a mask for everyone’s protection.

Hand sanitizer is available, and we are continuing to offer curbside services.
