Schoharie Library Notes for Wednesday, March 3, 2021
The Schoharie Free Library remains open to properly-masked, socially-distanced visitors during its regular hours: Monday, Tuesday, and Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursday from noon to 7 p.m., and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Details and community resources are at www.SchoharieLibrary.org.
To sign up for the library’s weekly newsletter, visit http://eepurl.com/c8KI2. Subscribers receive weekly updates about library news, upcoming events, new acquisitions, and special announcements.
In response to guidance from professional library organizations across the state and country, the Schoharie Library will be reducing its mandatory quarantine period for items returned in our drop box from 96 hours to 48 hours. Patrons will now be given three days “grace period” before returned items are charged any overdue fees.
Through the month of March, patrons can support the Schoharie Library thanks to the Hannaford Supermarket’s Community Bag program. When shoppers buy a reusable shopping bag at any Hannaford location, they can follow the directions on the attached tag to choose the Schoharie Library as their designated recipient of a $1 donation from Hannaford.
