Gradually Re-opening

little boy peekingWell, just so you know, we are moving pretty slowly with this whole thing, because none of us can say that we are 100 percent sure of what we are doing! With that being said, we will be opening the library on May 18 for 15-minute appointments. Services available will include copies, faxes, and book and movie checkouts. We will be open from 10:00 AM to 5:30 PM Monday through Friday. On Saturdays, we will be open from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

We plan to continue this schedule until June 1. Although we will keep the same hours, we will be broadening our services to include adult appointments to use the computers. This will continue until June 15, at which time we are hoping to be fully open to our patrons. Until further notice, we will not have Story Time or Book Club. Details on the Summer Reading Program will be announced at a later date.

We have cleaned the library well in anticipation of opening. We are cleaning each book that is returned and quarantining the book for 7 days before it is returned to the shelves.

If you would rather not come to the library but need reading material, give us a call and we can make that happen. Please call us with any questions that pertain to our regular services and we will do our very best to meet that need.

By the way, we have missed you all and can’t wait before we can have that normal flow of patrons through the door. For now, one at a time sure sounds better than none at all! See you soon!

Closing Due to COVID-19

Regretting the inconvenience to our patrons, the decision has been made to close Lincoln Library as of 5:30 PM, March 17, 2020. The library will follow the schedule set out by USD 254 and will reopen when classes resume. At this time, classes are expected to be back in session on March 30, 2020!

We feel that looking at the big picture and doing what we can to discourage the spread of the COVID-19 virus is the best thing we can do for our patrons and the community!!!!
