The pandemic closed most public places for a good part of the last two years. Places are slowly starting to open back up with new procedures in place to help stop the spread of the virus. The St. Tammany Parish Library is one of them and is now open for residents to enjoy.
This fall the library will be pack with things for patrons to be involved in. The only difference, many events will be virtual programming or in-person outdoor events. Each library will maintain the rule of social distancing and the libraries have been redesigned to incorporate safety standards and features to keep patrons and library staff safe.
Masks will be required for everyone visiting the library ages five and older. Under Governor John Bel Edwards' indoor mask mandate masks must be worn by both vaccinated and unvaccinated patrons and workers. Computers will be open but only every other computer may be used and sanitizing supplies will be provided by the library.
If patrons are still leery of visiting the library, the libraries wills still offer curbside service and free wi-fi will be available in the parking lots of each library. The small libraries Abita Springs, Lacombe, Pearl River, Lee Road, Folsom, and Bush will now have evening hours on Wednesday nights.
