LIBRARIES CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

Para ayudar a mitigar la propagación de COVID-19, todas las Bibliotecas públicas de la Ciudad de San Rafael, incluidas la Biblioteca del Centro, la Biblioteca Pickleweed y la Biblioteca del Centro Comercial Northgate, están cerradas.

Esto está de acuerdo con la medida que ordena a los residentes a refugiarse en sus casas durante tres semanas a partir del 17 de marzo. Puede leer más sobre este tema  aquí..

Esto es lo que se estamos llevando a cabo durante este periodo:

  • Se están eliminando las multas  para todos los materiales mientras la biblioteca está cerrada y alentando a los usuarios a mantener sus artículos en casa.
  • Estamos trabajando para extender las fechas de vencimiento de todos los artículos hasta que la biblioteca haya vuelto a abrir.
  • Mantenemos todos los artículos “retenidos” en los estantes en sus ubicaciones actuales para que estén disponibles una vez que se vuelvan a abrir las bibliotecas.
  • Estamos en el proceso de renovar todos los materiales de Link + hasta el 7 de abril. Si tiene preguntas sobre elementos específicos en su cuenta, puede comunicarse con nosotros a través de library@cityofsanrafael.org o nuestro chat  . Proporcione su número de tarjeta de biblioteca, nombre y apellido.
