“Our patrons have been so gracious during this challenging time, quickly adapting to the digital services only model of library services during COVID-19. Our staff has jumped in and created virtual programming, expanded our Ask a Librarian hours, implemented virtual book clubs, taught countless patrons how to use digital library services, but now, we are ready to get back to our branches and get books in hands,” library director Gayle Holloman said. “Patrons who wish to check out physical materials will be able to do so using the library’s new curbside model beginning July 1st.”
