A Message from Library Director Dana Barber Dear Library Community, Grundy Library is pleased to announce new and expanded hours! Beginning November 2, the library will be open Monday, Tuesday, & Wednesday from 11:00am to 7:00pm and Thursday, Friday, & Saturday from 11:00am to 4:00pm. Curbside pickup is also available on those days and times (weather permitting). Please note that our elevator is temporarily out of service as it undergoes a planned upgrade. We’ll send an update via social media once the elevator is operational again. You also may have noticed that construction has begun on our rooftop patio. In addition to roof repairs, the work entails new rooftop tiles, seating, lighting, and natural areas. We look forward to welcoming you to future library programs and events in this inviting outdoor space once it is completed. This month the library offers more new collections for families! Nature Backpacks, offered in partnership with the Heritage Conservancy, include field guides and equipment for exploring the outdoors. Interested in coding? Micro:bit kits, recommended for grades 6 to 12, provide an easy way to get started. On your next visit, ask about our free takeaway kits, which include themed crafts and activities for preschool and elementary age children. When planning your visit, please remember that all visitors are required to: - Wear a face mask (applies to all visitors age 2 and older)
- Practice social distancing (6 feet)
If you are experiencing fever, cough, shortness of breath or other cold or flu like symptoms, please delay your visit until these symptoms have passed. As a reminder, COVID Level 2 of the Library’s Service Restoration Plan remains in place at this time. The complete plan can be found on the Grundy Library web page. The Grundy Library continues to provide a wide array of information services and virtual programming for all ages. We invite you to browse this newsletter to find out more about upcoming programs and events. As always, you can access our remote services from the comfort of your home and explore the library's online resources anytime. Thank you for ongoing patronage and support, Dana Barber Library Director |
