Southbury Public Library Follows CT And Reopens More Services

SOUTHBURY, CT — As Connecticut takes big strides toward normalcy Wednesday and lifts many of its coronavirus protocols, Southbury Public Library is following suit and reopening many of its services.

The library has reopened more second floor study tables this week, and has made more first floor seating available to patrons.

Also the Friends of the Library Lobby Book Sale area is now open, but officials ask that customers use exact change or checks to make purchases.

Magazines can be checked out, and newspapers can be read in the fireplace room, though officials ask that people use the provided hand sanitizer before and after reading the newspapers.

"We are continuing to reintroduce services with the safety of the public and our staff in mind," officials wrote on the library's website. "Please ask a staff member if you would like us to sanitize a table, computer, or any other area before you use it."

The library still requires patrons 2 years old and up to wear masks inside the building, and continue with social distancing.
