PREVIEW Columnist, and the library staff
Our county is now operating under COVID Level Red: Severe Risk. Because libraries have been declared a critical service, we are able to stay open — with some modifications to our operations. Here is the current status:
• We are limited to 10 patrons at a time plus staff in the building, since we must operate at only 25 percent capacity.
• We remain open on Thursdays from 1 to 7 p.m. with 1 to 2 p.m. reserved for seniors and higher-risk populations.
• Other hours: Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays: 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. with 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. for seniors and higher risk populations. Saturdays: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sundays: closed.
