4/15/21The library is open from noon to 6 p.m. weekdays, 1-4 Saturday. We also are offering curbside pickup during these hours.
The library strives to continue to provide excellent customer service while also maintaining a safe environment for the staff, patrons and community because COVID-19 remains a serious concern. While the library has re-opened its doors, we will continue with the safety measures put in place prior to closing.
All staff members are required to wear face coverings to help protect patrons. The library strongly encourages all patrons over the age of 10 (who are able) to wear face coverings to help protect the library staff and other patrons. Disposable masks are available near the front entrance, along with hand sanitizer.
To help ensure that we can follow social distancing rules within the library, we are limiting the total number of patrons allowed in at any one time to 12. Visit times are limited to a maximum of 1 hour.
A limited number of computers are available for public use for up
to 1 hour.
Seating throughout the library is limited. The study room is available for reservation for individual use or by two family members for up to 1 hour.
We encourage you to continue to take advantage of our curbside pickup service. Patrons may reserve items at any time through the library's online catalog, the COOL Libraries app, or by sending a list of items by e-mail ( This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it ). Patrons also may call the library at 937.783.3585 during library hours to reserve items. Patrons will be notified when their items are ready to pick up. Just call the library to let us know you are here to pick up your items, and your bag of items will be brought to your car.Items must be returned in the library bookdrops in the front of the building, the slot at the Circulation Desk, or the return bins in the side parking lot. Following recommendations of the Institute of Museum and Library Services, all returned items are isolated for at least three days before they are checked in and returned to the collection. (Following the results of a recent study, magazines and board books are now being isolated for at least four days before they are checked in and returned to the collection.) The items will remain on your account during this time.
