Library services are currently limited at our Downtown location due to construction in the lobby entrance. We hope to reopen by Friday, November 22.
While the building is closed, the library is providing services from the Express Pick-up window, including pick-up of holds, printing, and mystery grab bags.
“We know how important library services are to our community so there’s never a great time to close,” said Christopher Vanderkruys, Director of Corporate Services. “Unfortunately, due to the nature and location of the work, it requires us to close the building. We are looking forward to the resolution of this project that will extend the life of this beautiful space.”
Staff are providing services from the Express Pick-up Window on the Owen Street side of the building beside the book return slot. Library members can pick up holds, request items, pick up themed grab bags of library materials, and print up to 10 pages for no charge. Express Pick-up appointments can be booked for quick pick-up of items, and returns will be accepted 24/7 through the outdoor return slot.
Reminder that during this closure, you can still access our many online services, including our Digital Library, cloudLibrary, Busy Bundles and Wireless Printing.
Painswick and Holly continue to offer full services during the Downtown closure.
We apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you for your patience as we work to improve your library.
