On Monday, December 14, the Simcoe-Muskoka Region will move to the RED - Control Zone. Both locations remain open for browsing, borrowing, computer use, bookable spaces and more services including self-serve printing and Wi-Fi.
For those who aren't comfortable entering our spaces, Express Pick-up is available 7 days a week for low-contact curbside pickup of your items.
We've designed our services and spaces to be low-contact so staff and the community remain safe. To help everyone stay safe, please:
Before you enter the library:
- Wear a face covering that covers your nose, mouth and chin
- Provide name and contact information for contact tracing
- Answer COVID-19 screening questions
- Wash your hands with soap and water or use hand sanitizer
- Return items using the outdoor return slots
While you are in the library:
- Continue wearing your face covering
- Maintain 2m physical distance from others
- No eating or drinking
- Limit your stay to under 60 minutes
- No social gatherings
- Bookable spaces are limited to 2 people
In addition to the measures listed above, we are limiting the number of patrons in our buildings to 50 at a time, which allows for everyone to maintain physical distancing. Returned items are quarantined before being checked in and may stay on your account for up to 7 days.
