What's Next?

All on-site library programs, meetings, events, and community room reservations have been cancelled until Yolo County libraries re-open.  All in-person Friends/Foundation meetings and Library Advisory Board meetings have also been cancelled until further notice. Learn More Here

The State of California has authorized public libraries to start expanding service offerings. The California State Library noted, “as libraries reopen buildings, their role as a free, welcoming public space is as important as ever. Protecting the health and safety of staff and patrons will require a worksite plan, training, individual control measures, physical distancing guidelines and cleaning and disinfecting protocols.”
 
Here in Yolo County, we are working on a plan to identify services and establish limited schedules for our branch libraries. Given the current increase in COVID-19 cases, we are taking a cautious approach to making these decisions.  We will share updates as they become available.  In the meantime, attend one of our  virtual programs on Facebook, Instagram and Zoom.
