LIVERMORE FALLS — Treat Memorial Library will be open by appointment starting Tuesday, July 21. Browsing by appointment will be available Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. COVID-19 safety guidelines will be in place. Patrons should be alone, wearing a cloth face covering and carrying only their library card. Five people will be allowed in at a time for 30 minutes.
Copying, printing, faxing and scanning will once again be available. Due to social distancing, only two public computers will be available and, again, by appointment only. Curbside will continue to be available to those who prefer it or cannot wear a mask. Interlibrary loans will be back the same week. The library cannot accept book donations at this time due to safety reasons.
Failure to comply with guidelines may result in a patron being asked to leave the library and suspension of library privileges.
