The Library is open for basic services, browsing and essential computer use. If you prefer, the library is continuing to offer curbside service to pick up your library materials. It is quick, easy, safe, and convenient. Simply call the library 564-2934 and let us know when to have your items ready. We can have your items checked out to you and ready for pick up outside the building in a short amount of time.

Masks are encouraged and we ask that you social distance.

Furniture use is limited to two people per table. Sitting on the floor in a public space is prohibited.

Please review the following temporary policies that may affect your family members.

1. Current polices mean students will not be able to use the library after school for gaming, socializing or while waiting for rides or practices to start unless they are actively participating in library services such as reading, homework or studying. Please plan accordingly.
2. The meeting room is available for groups to use. A use policy must be signed and new protocols have been put into place.

Staff will be available and happy to answer reference questions for any patrons including students who are participating in schooling from home. We have put together an education resources handout for you which can guide you and your students to using the free reference resources available to you. Please ask for a copy.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact us at 920-564-2934 or at www.oostburgref@monarchlibraries.org.
