Message from our Executive Director Barbara Walters issued March 13:
Dear library customer,
As you may have seen on the news this afternoon, Governor Inslee has issued a statewide order closing schools, canceling public gatherings, and enforcing social distancing. When schools are closed, our public libraries have always become gathering places for children and their families. As a result, there isn’t a way for us to remain open while ensuring the safety of our staff and members of our communities.
Effective Monday, March 16th at 8pm all of our libraries in Chelan, Douglas, Grant, Okanogan and Ferry counties will close to the public. These closures will remain in effect until at least April 24th.
During the closure of libraries, we are making the following changes:
Public libraries have always been about community, and the safety of our communities is paramount. We value your continued support during this challenging time.
Sincerely,
Barbara Walters
Executive Director
