Dear Library Community,

First of all, we miss you! It's been a difficult few weeks for everyone, and all of us staff would much prefer to be at the library, helping you check out books and movies, rather than being at home. But we know it's important to protect the most vulnerable members of our population, as well as people who work in essential jobs that have to stay open. One of the best ways we can help is by everyone staying home as much as possible.

During this time, we are doing our best to stay engaged with you through social media and our website. If you haven't already, follow our accounts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. We also have a new YouTube channel! (see links below)

We've compiled lists of fun and interesting things to do at home: https://www.siuslawlibrary.info/at-home-resources. You can also find the latest resources and news from trusted sources on our COVID-19 information page: https://www.siuslawlibrary.info/covid19.

We are automatically renewing checked-out items and expiring library cards, so please don't worry about returning things. The outside book drop is closed.

If you're looking for public wifi, ours is still on. You're welcome to bring your device and work in our parking lot, as long as you remain in your vehicle and/or maintain appropriate social distance from others.

If you need assistance, we are regularly checking email at ref@siuslawlibrary.org, and checking messages at 541-997-3132. We'll get back to you as soon as we can!

Please take care of each other and stay safe. We'll see you again soon!
