COVID‑19 Updates

Library Services during COVID-19  — we're here for you!

Let's do our part to keep our community healthy:

• Wear a mask: Wear your mask in all indoor common spaces.
• Keep your distance: Stay 2 metres (6 feet) from others.
• Get tested: Even if you don’t have symptoms, you can help keep people safe by getting tested regularly.
• Wash your hands: Regularly wash your hands or use hand sanitizer.
• Limit groups and gatherings: Keep your social group small and consistent and follow provincial gathering rules.
• Check yourself: Stay home if you feel sick, follow provincial testing protocols if showing symptoms of COVID-19, pay attention to potential exposure notices and self-isolate if required.
