Cobourg Councillor Adam Bureau announced at council Monday that the Cobourg Public Library will reopen to the public Aug. 24.
Bureau pointed out that hours will be reduced, largely in order to accommodate the extra cleaning and offset the costs of three additional staffers who have been added with uniquely COVID-related jobs.
A lobby greeter will be stationed at the entry to ensure anyone entering the library uses the hand sanitizers.
The curbside-hold staffer will handle all holds, and will continue to offer curbside pick-ups where they are requested.
The computer lab attendant will remain on duty in the computer lab – which has been moved to the first floor – not only to assist patrons but also ensure each station is properly cleaned at the end of each session.
More information is on the library's Facebook and Instagram pages, as well as on their website.
