PENINSULA LIBRARY NEWS
Library is Open!
The Peninsula Library has been open in a "modified curbside" mode since June 1. By opening up our new vestibule, patrons can return items, check out new items, and place reserves for materials. The statewide library delivery service has resumed and holds can now be placed across all of the Clevnet member libraries. Holds can be placed by logging in through the library website, by using the Clevnet app or by calling in to the library so staff can place holds for you. Health guidelines require libraries to place all returned items in quarantine for at least three days, so returned items will not be discharged immediately. During these unusual circumstances, we are waiving overdue fines. Should an overdue fine show up on your account, please alert us so that it can be removed. Fees for lost or damaged items must still be charged to accounts. We are constantly monitoring state and federal guidelines to determine when it will be allowable for patrons to come into the library for browsing the colle
ction. At the time of this writing, Summit County is on Level 3 alert from the State of Ohio which requires that masks be worn while at the library. Additionally, Peninsula Council has adopted an ordinance requiring masks. At this time it is not known when it will be possible to hold programs in the library. Currently the library is open Monday through Friday from 10:00AM to 6:00PM. To reach the library, please call us at (330) 657-2665 or email us at info@peninsulalibrary.org . Please look for us on Facebook or visit our website for updated information (peninsulalibrary.org).
