If you have been meaning to take care of that blocked Windsor Locks library card but haven't quite gotten around to it, don't worry! During this time of social distancing, when many of us find ourselves with some extra time on our hands, you may wish you could download a good book from Overdrive to your e-reader. The $10 fine level that usually results in a block on your card has been temporarily raised to allow most of our borrowers to take advantage of our online services, including borrowing eBooks and audiobooks from Overdrive. Check an electronic book out today! We want everyone to have access to books while staying home. Visit www.windsorlockslibrary.org and click on the Overdrive icon to see what we have to offer.

Status Update
Due to the increase in cases of COVID-19 in Connecticut, we will be available by email only for an undetermined amount of time. Please contact epearce@libraryconnection.info if you are in need of information or have questions about your library record or holds. We will respond as soon as possible during daytime business hours. Thank you for your cooperation.
Please note that we have adjusted all due dates to April 1 so there are no materials due during this period of closure. Since we will be unable to empty the book drop regularly, we ask that you retain your library materials until we reopen. Your existing holds will all be held at the library until we are open to the public again. Please visit our website at www.windsorlockslibrary.org for more information and updates as well as links to databases, entertainment, and learning opportunities.
Stay healthy and use this time to read good books!

STATUS UPDATE
We are currently open to the public, but that may change given directives from the town, state, or our own evaluation of whether we can safely provide library services to the public. We are doing everything we can to keep the library clean and germ-free, including limiting public computer use and sanitizing keyboards and door handles. Please do not come to the library if you are feeling sick. If you do need to come, you are welcome but don't forget to wash your hands use tissues or a handkerchief. Stay well!
