• Use of self-checkout
• Mobile printing
• Self-service copier will be available with limited staff assistance

Patrons are required to have temperature taken upon entering and wear a mask at all times while inside of a library facility, and masks should fully cover the nose and mouth. All LCPL buildings are adhering to occupancy limits, so you may experience a wait before entering a branch. Patrons should limit time in the building to allow more patrons to have an opportunity to use the library.<\/p>\n
Curbside pick-up will only be available on Tuesdays. For details on how to use this service, call your local library branch.<\/p>\n
Public programs and room bookings remain suspended. However, virtual programs will continue on the library’s Facebook page and YouTube channel.<\/p>\n
Wi-Fi will continue being accessible outside all branches.
Book returns are open at all branches. All items are being quarantined for five days before they are processed, checked in and recirculated.<\/p>\n
