Book Drop

If you plan to return library materials to our book drop during this time, please reconsider. All materials due during this time have due dates of April 1 and everything that was due before we closed will be backdated to March 14, our last open day. The due date will be extended if we remain closed for a longer period of time.

Like most of you, we have a very small supply of disinfectants and hand sanitizers due to the hoarding that has occurred. We have 2 employees who have been attempting to keep up with emptying the book drop, which involves wiping down and drying each item before checking them in. Once we run out of disinfectant wipes we will be unable to empty the drop and eventually things will no longer fit into it. And please do NOT return materials if you are feeling sick or have been exposed to someone who has or may have COVID-19. There is no definite information on how long the virus might live on plastic or paper, so we prefer to err on the side of caution for your safety and ours

We hope that you are all well and we look forward to being able to serve you in person very soon.
