Upper Valley libraries re-opening to patrons

After more than a year of being physically closed to the public, libraries throughout the Upper Valley are opening their doors once again.
“They haven t been storming the doors, but sure we ve been seeing a lot of old faces that we ve missed this past year,” said Nancy Tusinski, director of the Hartland Public Library, which fully reopened to the public earlier this month. “It s a big homecoming … for some of our patrons and for us as well.”
The Hartland library is asking patrons to wear masks, regardless of vaccination status, because the library’s youngest visitors cannot be vaccinated at this time. A couple months prior to reopening, patrons were able to make appointments to visit the library. As the rate of the virus slowed and vaccination rates increased, fully reopening became more of a possibility.
