You will not be able to make an appointment to guarantee admission. Visitors will be admitted on a first come, first served basis.

1. When you arrive, you will line up outside.
2. Please make sure your mask is on.
3. Each member of your group will be counted, including babies. Staff will let in up to 25% of the building occupancy at a time. The number of people we can admit depends on each building's size. If there isn't enough space for your full group, you will need to wait for the next open hour.

For safety, libraries will be open for one hour at a time, followed by an hour of cleaning. The library will be closed during cleaning. Libraries will be open at specific times for entry. Libraries will be closed at specific times throughout the day for cleaning. Be sure to check your library's location page for up-to-date information.

Here’s an example of how this works:

1. When you arrive, line up for entry.
2. If you arrived at 1:15pm and there is room for you to enter, you will be able to stay for 45 minutes, until the session ends at 2pm.
3. If we do not have the capacity, you will need to wait until 3pm, the next available time slot.
4. From 2-3pm, staff will be cleaning the library. Check the library location page for up-to-date in-library hours.
