Horsham Library Resumes Grab-And-Go Pickup

HORSHAM, PA — Patrons are now being allowed back inside the Horsham Township Library, after it resumed its COVID-aware grab-and-go service.

The library, at 435 Babylon Rd., restarted the service Monday at noon.

Now,patrons will be allowed to browse, pick up items they put on hold and use library computers for up to 30 minutes. The computer sessions are limited to one session per day and will be accessible using guest passes only.

Staff members will be wiping down the computers before each use, library officials said.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the library had been offering only curbside service. That service remains available to patrons who do not wish to come inside. They may park in one of the designated curbside spaces and call the library and a staff member will bring their items to them.

Patrons are asked to continue returning items to the drop bin behind the library, which is accessible 24 hours a day. Materials will continue to be quarantined for several days upon return.

Hours for the grab-and-go service are:

Monday: noon-6 p.m.
Tuesday-Thursday: 10 a.m.-5 p.m.
Friday and Saturday: 10 a.m.-4 p.m.

Patrons are required to wear a mask covering their mouth and nose.

Meanwhile, the Horsham Township Library is continuing virtual programs including Facebook Story Time and Virtual Book Club meetings, which will be posted and held as scheduled.

Patrons are encouraged to place holds online at the library's website. Anyone with questions is asked to email bsotnyk@mclinc.org or call the library during operating hours at 215-443-2609.
