Greater Sudbury Public Library board chair Michael Bellmore reminds residents that public safety measures remain in effect at all library locations.

“Patrons must wear a mask, disinfect their hands often and stay home when not feeling well,” Bellmore said in a press release. “Each location has an occupancy limit so we ask patrons to complete their visit in a timely manner. Enhanced cleaning remains in effect and we will continue to quarantine returned or heavily used materials for seven days before returning them to circulation.”

Residents who do not feel comfortable visiting an indoor library can continue to borrow library materials through curbside pickup at most locations. Hours, availability and online reservations are available at www.sudburylibraries.ca or by phoning 705-673-1155.
