Beginning Wednesday, December 16, 2020 Bethany Library will be open for curbside pickup and drop-off only, due to the spike in Covid-19 cases locally. All library materials will be available via telephone (570-253-4349), by email request (kbaxter@waynelibraries.org) and by patron requests for specific items through personal accounts at www.waynelibraries.org. The librarian will be in during the following hours: Wednesday through Saturday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. unless inclement weather forces the library to close for a day or two.
Due to the holidays, the library will close at 3 pm on December 24 and 31 and be closed completely on December 25 and 26, plus January 1 and 2. Curbside pickup will remain the norm at least into mid-January and perhaps beyond, until it is safe enough to reopen our doors to patrons again. Free Wi-Fi continues to be available 24/7 in our parking lot. Stay safe and healthy everyone. |

THE HAWLEY LIBRARY WILL MOVE TO CURBSIDE PICKUP ONLY SERVICE 12/15/20.
The health and safety of our staff, patrons, and community is very important to us, and as a result of the recent, rapid rise of COVID-19 cases in our area, we've decided to shift from in-person, in-library service to curbside only beginning Tuesday, December 15th 2020. We'll still be receiving materials from all the member libraries of the Wayne/Pike Consortium, so feel free to continue to place holds on things you're interested in and we'll call you when they arrive at our location. There are several options for requesting items for curbside pickup , and we encourage you to call us during our regular hours if you have any questions, need assistance finding items in the online catalog, or if you'd like us to serve as your book/DVD 'personal shoppers'. FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS, PLEASE VISIT https://www.hawleylibrary.org/curbside-pickup.html |

Library Fines Amnesty Program has been extended to the end of 2020! |
This is great news for the patrons of all 7 libraries in the Wayne Library Alliance! After a discussion at last night's WLA Board meeting, the board has decided the compassionate and smart thing to do is to take one more thing off the minds of our patrons and NOT charge fines through the end of 2020. People have enough stress in their lives- worrying about paying library fines shouldn't be one of them.
This does NOT mean that people can simply keep items as long as they want or that the number of DVDs they can take is waived.
When you reach your renewal limit- our library staff will tell you. If it's a high demand item - be a good neighbor and bring it back responsibly for the next person to check out. During this stressful time, caring and concern is of the utmost importance to ALL of us. Call us if you have any questions.
