Our city put us on modified operations. Patrons can quickly come in and exchange items but there is no one allowed to stay or hang out all day. All public computer access in the building has been shut down but they can still access WiFi from the outside of the building.
We have one confirmed case in our county and our admin. said we would not shut down until there is a confirmed case in our town.
The J R Huffman Public Library in Hemphill, TX will be closed from March 30, 2020 with a tentative reopening date set for Monday, April 6th, 2020. Infomation has been posted on the door, on our marquee, on Facebook and in our local papers, both online and hard copies.
Will this info be shared with other libraries? It would be helpful if we could show city management who is and who is not opening and the services being offered.
Yes, we will make the information public at some point. TLA also offers library closure information via a Google spreadsheet on their webpage: https://txla.org/tools-resources/covid-19/covid-19-resources/. Thanks!
